Description
When labels on the x-axis of the histogram are too long, they get printed in full and the histogram gets shrunken down (as in sample image below). Labels shouldn't be blindly truncated, but also can't be forced too small to be legible. An abbreviation algorithm could be a solution, though this could be quite complicated. One potential solution might be to add a button when the labels are over a certain length to truncate them or leave as-is.
Investigate: dash x-axis label solutions (beyond text size), abbreviation options.

Research direction
Start at the dashboard's histogram rendering and investigate the x-axis label handling, then review Dash x-axis label solutions and abbreviation options. Done means long labels no longer shrink the histogram while remaining legible, with the chosen behavior defined for labels over the relevant length.
