Hi,
A Power Bi chart when it has too many values it just ignores some label fields and shows the rest giving a very different perspective of the data that could lead to very misleading conclusions.
This is the same chart with the only difference that in the upper chart it has a field in the X axis and in the second one it hasn´t any field.
So, I can understand that when a chart has too many labels it should ignore some of them, but not the ones with most values!!
I am almost sure that this has already been reported but I couldn´t find any related threat
Hi @vdburg
There is one important option called Overflow text. It displays all labels even if there was no enough place for that.
Maybe it will solve your problem...

Well, in that case I invite you to use another visual, or to display the data through a table. I always have this case with my dashboard. Everybody wants a bar chart (beautiful and nice) but I switch to a simple table when it is not suitable, especially when percentages are very different and numerous.

Hi @CR,
Sure, I can use other workarounds as well. But if I am not doing nothing wrong I consider this a big bug because end users don´t usually look at the information icon and can get to very wrong conclusions just because the power BI team didn´t think of not showing the less important values instead of the most important when too many values.
You may try adding a slicer or visual level filters.
