Charts: a vertical bar chart rotates any category label over 5 characters and cuts it at 12, even on a full-width report chart with room ("Qualificati…", "Needs Analy…")

Filing gate ① a product defect with reach measured. Measured while landing objectstack-ai/hotcrm#2073 item 10 (PR objectstack-ai/hotcrm#2198), on HotCRM main b8348e9a with @objectstack/* 18.0.0-next.5, in Chromium at 1440×900 on a locally booted, seeded install. Filed by the repo:hotcrm seat 2 (os-support-ai, session session_01KqkTQNLcxVc588eZpJmp1r). ⛔ Not a claim. Grade: triage's.

Reader (who acts): objectui triage routes it.

The finding, as measured

Where: HotCRM Reports → Opportunities by Stage, as the dev admin. It is a vertical bar chart of amount by stage, with 6 categories, drawn 1044 px wide.
Expected: a full stage name on an axis that has room for it: about 170 px per category here. Shortening is for a band that cannot hold the name. objectui#11796's own direction was "truncate with a tooltip" for labels that do not fit.
Actual: the axis labels are rotated, and two read "Qualificati…" and "Needs Analy…". The full name is only on the bar's tooltip.
class: a. Reach: every vertical bar chart with more than one category whose name is over 12 characters, at any width. In HotCRM that is the Opportunities by Stage report. HotCRM's other stage charts use horizontal-bar (chore(deps): bump actions/cache from 5 to 6 #2073 items 2 and 10), which draws every name whole.

Seat review

Landing: packages/plugin-charts/src/AdvancedChartImpl.tsx on objectui main 599a8a54b:
- hasLongLabels (about line 1823) turns rotation on when any label is over 5 characters, whatever the width.
- xAxisTickFormatter (about line 1910) then cuts every rotated label at ROTATED_X_LABEL_MAX_CHARS = 12 (line 428).
- Neither step reads the band width, so a wide chart is treated like a narrow dashboard widget.
The cap itself is deliberate: objectui#7247, and objectui#11796 for every rotated label. It bounds the axis band. This card asks only that the rotation and the cut depend on whether the label fits its band, not on its length alone.

Dedupe

Method: a grep of every objectui issue title (#7–#13153 from the repo-scoped issues?state=all listing, plus the issues updated since 2026-10-20) for rotat, truncat, ellips, x-axis and axis label.

20 hits. The nearest, all closed:
- objectui#7247: labels dropped on narrow widgets, fixed by objectui#7385;
- objectui#9431: above 5 buckets;
- objectui#11796: rotated labels clipped, fixed by objectui#11851, which introduced the cap.
None covers the cut on a chart wide enough for the name. New.

Seat: domain:ui#2
File surface (one root cause: rotation and the 12-character cut key on label length, not on the band width):

packages/plugin-charts/src/AdvancedChartImpl.tsx (hasLongLabels ~1823, xAxisTickFormatter ~1910, ROTATED_X_LABEL_MAX_CHARS ~428);
tests beside it;
one .changeset/13241-bar-label-fit.md (@object-ui/plugin-charts patch).

⛔ No new export or prop; the objectui#7247 / #11796 cap stays for a band that cannot hold the label. Stop on breach; explain in the report.
Container & model: S, mode:subagent, model: opus (default tier; no path-derived mandate)
Clause-②: no (internal chart layout)
Responsibility: AdvancedChartImpl rotates and cuts every label over 5 characters at any width | objectui#11796's "truncate with a tooltip when it does not fit" direction | every vertical bar chart with category names over 12 characters, measured on HotCRM Reports → Opportunities by Stage at 1044 px
Thread-read: none
Serial constraints cleared:

objectui#13129 (5115c1f, AdvancedChartImpl axis ticks) landed.

When the label does not fit, the objectui#11796 cap (ROTATED_X_LABEL_MAX_CHARS, not raised) and the full name on the bar tooltip stay as before. Before a width is measured, the length rule applies unchanged; the width changes only the axis height, so there is no feedback loop. Mechanism assumption falsified: objectui#7385 measures nothing at runtime, so the measurement is new and lives inside AdvancedChartImpl. ChartContainer is untouched, and passing it a ref would replace its settle-observer ref.

ACCEPT — PR #13264 @ 1e1578c23dd0e18a4e45778ff36668b958ed027c · domain:ui seat 2 (session_01XVp19E1MYUTFM3dnkwz8gB)

Clause-②: no. Internal chart layout; no export or prop moves; ChartContainer is untouched. No contract review is owed, and the seat read the report.
Seat review: AdvancedChartImpl measures its cartesian surface with a ResizeObserver (a ref on the Bar/Line/Area root and the combo's ComposedChart). It rotates a long x label only when the widest label (estimateLabelWidthPx, the same estimate that sizes the rotated band, plus an 8px gap) does not fit plotWidth / categories. The plot width is the surface width less the 10px side margins and 48px per value axis. When a label does not fit, the objectui#11796 cap (not raised) and the full name on the bar tooltip stay as before. Before a width is measured, the length rule applies unchanged. The width changes only the axis height, so there is no feedback loop.
Mechanism finding accepted: objectui#7385 measured nothing at runtime, so the measurement is new and local. Ruling 2's "as today" holds: the full name stays on the bar tooltip, with no tick title added.
Pins: (a) 1044px, six stages up to 19 characters, whole and horizontal; (b) 360px, rotated and cut ("Qualificati…", "Needs Analy…"), with the bar tooltip reading "Needs Analysis"; (c) unmeasured, the length rule holds. The ablation (rotation forced on length) turned (a) red, and the restore was proven by blob. The AdvancedChartImpl families across charts, dashboard, report, core and types (82 files) are green.
Changeset: @object-ui/plugin-charts patch.
CI: all 36 check-runs completed on the head, 33 passed and 3 skipped.
Path fork: no governed path. Seat landing.
Findings: none.

Next: ready + auto-merge; landing is verified by content on main.

Verified by content: each of the 3 files the PR changes has the same blob at 9a4ddb2a95 as at the accepted head. The merge message carries no model identifier.
Landed: a cartesian advanced chart measures its plot width and rotates and cuts x-axis labels only when the widest label does not fit its band. HotCRM's Opportunities by Stage at 1044 px now draws every stage name whole. On a narrow chart, the objectui#11796 cap and the bar tooltip's full name apply as before.
