Truncating Label and Tooltips
The bar chart supports multiple ways to display labels with long names. You can configure labels to truncate to a fixed character length by removing characters from either the beginning or the end of the label.
• When you configure the TruncateX-AxisLabels property with a negative number: For example, if the property is set at -15, the first 15 characters of the label are cut off from the display and it begins with an ellipsis followed by the 16th character in the label. The x-axis labels begin with an ellipsis (…) and only the end of the label displays in the chart. This can be useful if your data contains long names with the distinguishing part of the name at the end.
• When you configure the TruncateX-AxisLabels property as in the example that follow: if the property is set at 10, only the first 10 characters of the label display, followed by an ellipsis. The x-axis labels end with an ellipsis. The complete label displays in a tooltip when the label is hovered on. This can be useful if your data contains long names.

The tooltips appear only when you truncate the labels.
