Data Labels and Visual Interaction

Hello everyone!

I have a stacked bar chart that represents the daily amount received in each warehouse (there are 3 warehouses). And I also have a pie chart that represent de total volume in each warehouse. 

What I want is: data labels indicating the total amount of the day on the stacked bar chart when nothing is filtered on the pie chart (just like the image below) and when a select a warehouse on the pie chart, only the data label of that warehouse shows up (with no total data label, just the one for that warehouse). 

Right now, when I enable the data labels and total data labels the visualization is very poluted. 

Is there a way to do what I want?

Hi @marina_oliveira ,

 

The data particle density in stacked column chart is too dense. Here I will give you some suggestions here.
1. You can turn off Background in Data labels and keep the Background in Total labels turning on. 

2. You can add some filters on other field like Legend or Day which will reduce the amount of data displayed at the same time. This will make the situation better.

3. Change the interaction between Donut chart and Stacked column chart from "Hightlight" to "Filter".

 

Best Regards,
Rico Zhou
