Data Label Display Problem on Stacked Charts

Hello all,

 

I can not manage to show data labels on stacked column and stacked bar charts. 

I have overflow text "on" setting but still they do not appear on my charts.

Help please ?

    Try making the TEXT SIZE of data label smaller.

    Currently you have 14.

     

    If this helps and resolves the issue, appreciate a Kudos and mark it as a Solution! 🙂

     

    Thanks,

      Even the minimum font-size does not help. As the bars are very tiny.

      I don't know why but there is not "outside" options in position selection either. I could show data label at least as call-out at outside of bar.

    Hi Anonymous 

    As tested, stacked charts have "outside end" option,

    but if i add columns into legend or add many columns/measures into value bucket,

    it would lose the "outside end" option and some value labels don't show on the visual.

    I am working to find a workaround, as soon as i find, i will reply here.

     

    Best Regards

    I have the same issue and this is by no means a solution, but a workaround:

    If you have always the same categories and time interval in your charts, one way to have the value displayed dynamically is to create a measure of it, put it in a card visual, remove the category, use a small font size for the label and place it as if it was part of your chart. Of course that its position will always remain the same, so use a font color (or background) that allows it to be visible either in front of the chart background or the column.

     

    As I said, I know this is not a solution to your issue (as there is none currently), but if you want to mark this as solution, I'll be grateful.

  • Go to data label. and where it says "label density" put 100%. This is that all (100%)

    Slds.
