Data labels overlapping within bar chart

Hi Folks,

 

Could any one suggest if there is any workaround for the Data labels overlapping with the Bars in Power BI, this is happening only for the first bar in the bar chart. First I thought because of the size of the visual, but even after enlarging the visual to the complete screen, it still remains same.

Hi @Ritaf1983 ,

 

Thank you for your reply, I have 6 visuals in the page, out of it, for some I could note this issue.

Thank you

Hi  @pavanmanideep 
it seems the problem of the proportion.
Did you change the "padding" on the visual?

Try to modify the max X axis to maximum value*1.1 and see if it helps.

For more assistance please share the link to pbix.

Hi @pavanmanideep 
You should modify the data label with the "outside end" option.
The example with the numbers as in your screenshot :
