X-axis titles are cropped in to half and fully visible in superset5.0

This is a known issue with X-axis title/label rendering in Superset 5.0. There have been several fixes merged that address axis title cropping:

Most relevant fix: PR #39447 increased the default X-axis title margin from 0 to 40px to prevent titles from being cropped or overlapping with tick labels [1]. This was merged in April 2026.

Additional related fixes:

• PR #37755 — fixed rotated X-axis labels being clipped at chart boundaries by dynamically adjusting padding [2]
• PR #36989 — fixed value labels cut off on horizontal bar charts

Workarounds if you're on Superset 5.0:

1. Apply X-axis label rotation (e.g., 45°) — this triggers different overlap handling logic
2. Increase chart height — gives more room for the axis title to render fully
3. Set "X Axis Label Interval" to "All" in the Customize panel

These fixes are available in more recent versions. If upgrading isn't an option, the workarounds above should help mitigate the cropping. Would you like more details on any specific workaround or fix?

This looks like a margin/layout regression rather than a chart-data issue.

If the x-axis title is getting clipped in 5.0, I would first check whether the default title margin changed or became too small. Increasing the margin a bit usually fixes this kind of cropping without changing chart behavior.

A regression test with a long axis title would probably be useful here too.
