Formatting a Bar/Line Graph: How to Adjust Line Label Placement

I have a Bar/Line Graph, and some of the lines are pretty close together, so it's hard to quickly distiguish between the labels for each graph.

As you can see for the yellow and blue lines, the labels are too close together. Is there a way to adjust the labels so that all the blue labels are below that line and all the yellow labels are above that line? Or some way to move each label individually?

Hi @Anonymous,

 

If you go to the data labels and select the customizer you are abble to select the line and the position of the labels, be aware that if the lines are on to of each other you may continue with the problem.
