Hi @Anantharuban,

 

Bar chart still works well on my side. Please switch to format tab and confirm you have turn on x-axis option.

Please try with one huge amount and other all low amount like my graph. There no option to show data label on top of bar graph. Only the option to format inside in my case not enough space in bar inside. When I select auto also no use. I think that it is bug.

I am using latest version only june 2018 and old version may 2018 also have this issue

Hi @Anantharuban,

 

If you mean chart data label issue when it contains huge amount of date and small data at same time, you can manually modify position property to display data label.
