Data Label Density Missing in New Update?

[Thigs]

Hi! I can't find the data label density slider in the new PBI update. Anyone know where it went? I've got a crowded line chart I'd like to lower the amount of data labels on.

Hi @Thigs ,

In a Line chart, Label Density feature is available when the X-axis display numbers or dates, and X-axis Type is set as Continuous.

The reason is that when the X-axis is Category type, there is a scroll bar for us to see each data point clearly by scrolling right or left. And if X-axis values are not numbers or dates, the axis is Category type by default. But if it's Continuous type, there is no scroll bar and don't have labels in X-axis for each data point. The Label Density is used in this scenario.

Best Regards,

Jay

Thanks Jay, was searching for this explanation for quite a while and finally understood that my X-axis was set to Continuous.
