I have a set of pie charts in a report. The size of the pie charts ends up being different based on the label sizes. a larger label will generate a smaller chart. a smaller label will generate a larger chart. How can I make the size of the charts uniform regardless of label size.
I have tried to set the padding under the chart Style as well as the padding under the chart PlotAreaStyle. Setting the padding on the chart Style did decrease the size of the charts but it decreased them all by the same amount and they are still different sizes.

The pie chart's available size depends on the size of the labels and changes dynamically, but the "pie" radius can be controlled through the Size property of the RadialAxis in graph's coordinate system. The property should be set to a string that represents a valid Unit, i.e. "5cm" or "100px", etc.
Please note that if the graph size is not large enough to accommodate the pie chart and its labels, the labels might be cut off.

Hi,
I have exactly the same behaviour and when the graph size is not enough, the labels are cut off.
Do you have any solution to resolve this labels cut-off problem? For example: do a wrap text in the label, is this possible?
Hello Minh,
The Graph item doesn't automatically resize itself, because every item tries to keep its design-time size. So when there's no space for the labels, they're being overlapped or cut-off.
Currently there's no automatic adjustment of the data point labels' position or contents. However, you can consider applying some text transformation on longer labels, for example, if they are longer than 5 characters, replace the spaces with new line characters to make them wrap. In this case the expression would look like this (assuming the data point labels use Fields.Type to show their text):
Replace(Fields.Type, ' ', '
'), Fields.Type)
Hope this helps.
