100% stacked column chart - labels issue

Hi all,
I hope maybe you will be able to help me. Looked for solution here but haven't found it.

The issue I have is that I am creating 100% stacked column chart, and had to add labels - unfortunately sometimes these categories in legend get just few % (less than 5% like orange one below in the middle) and these labels are not visible. Tried different ways to fix this: made this as large as possible (these Month x-axis category could have more so we would have more columns there), turned on overflow text for labels, but cannot force them to be visible for all values, even 0.1% - for stacked chart I don't see option to move labels outside of the bars which might do the trick.

Have anyone had same issue or have an idea how to solve this? Here is the link to pbix with dummy data as I can't share real dataset for that. There same issue is shown as it does not display label for all the categories in legend
Appreciate any help 🙂

Thanks,
Piotr

It is what it is - there's no space for the label.  Teach your users about hovering.

@lbendlin Thanks a lot for your reply!

Yeah so I think hovering is ok, I guess most users know that, it just does not look good in power point etc, where you capture an image. So we have to use workarounds and was thinking if there is more robust solution for that.
