We’ve made a number of small improvements to the data visualization experience in Grafana.

Table cell text wrapping

A longstanding feature request for the table visualization is to allow wrapping of text within cells. In Grafana 11.1 we’ve added this capability! By default, the column with the longest text is selected for wrapping. You can also configure wrapping manually using field overrides.

Text wrapping is in public preview, however, it’s available to use by default. We’d love hear from you about how this new feature is working. To provide feedback, you can open an issue in the Grafana GitHub repository.

Stat visualization percent change color mode options

Sometimes less is more! The Standard behavior for percent change in the stat visualization is to color positive percent changes green and negative percent changes red. Depending on your use case however, you may want to customize how percent change color is set. We’ve added the options to have percent change color mode Inverted (with positive red and negative green) or match the Same as value.
