How do I get data labels to show up on the small bar of a stacked bar chart

[BiMica]

I have a stacked bar chart that i cannot see one of the data labels on the smallest bar. I went through all the suggestions on other posts. Overflow text is on, font is smallest available, label density was suggested but I don't see any label density.

@BiMica Yeah, that's sort of Power BI for you. Some things are simply not possible. You *might* be able to adjust the Layout on your Bars but I doubt that will make a difference.

Yeah i figured, the red bar is bassically not even there. do you have a suggestion for a more approprate visual for this metric?

Hi @BiMica 

Maybe you can open the Overflow text in the Data labels, but overflow text only works if there is enough space.

If the data labels are still not visible, consider using tooltips to display the information. Tooltips can provide additional details when you hover over the bars.
