How can I customize the category labels in my scatter plot to only show Y Axis values?

Hi! I have a scatter plot with three data points - the program code on the x-axis, the % completed in the y-axis, and the number of students in the size. This is what my scatter plot currently looks like:

What I would like to do is only have the % completed show as a label (and ideally in the middle of the marker). Is this possible? Also, if it is possible, I would like to have the % completed then a comma and then the number of students. So if we had a marker with two students, I would like it to say "66.67%, 4". This is all I have for the category label options, however:

Thank you for any and all guidance!

@Anonymous I don't think it is possible to customize the data labels, I hope in the future it will be similar to other visuals where it allows you to show your own data labels, but not for now.
