ssrs: Empty space before vertical axis label

Question

Is there a way in SSRS where I can minimize the space between the border of the chart and vertical axis labels?

Thanks in advance!

Answer 1

Say I have a simple chart:

Look at the Chart -> Chart Areas property:

You can control the position of items in the chart with the various CustomInnerPlotPosition and CustomPosition values.

These are all disabled by default:

However, you can enable and change to control the chart rendering:

Here I set CustomPosition -> Left to 0.

Default properties:

Updated properties:

You can see this has reduced the whitespace. Depends on your chart, but maybe this will be enough.
