Default Bar Chart Axis Labels - un Word Wrap

I am trying to plot some data with really long axis label names (40+
char). The problem is that I cannot change the "area" that the labels
fit into.

I can change the angle to 45 degrees and everything shows up, but for
a y axis at 0 degrees it auto word wraps to fit inside the "area". Is
there a way to modify the area so that I can get my long names on
there?

I've tried modifying the source cells with Alt+ Enter to see if it
would break it up onto multiple lines, but it doesn't.
