How to Show All Custom Data Labels and How to Show Them as Paragraphs if the Text is long
Hi,
I figured out how to do custom data labels thanks to parry2k , now I wonder how to show them all and how to paragraphize them. For example, the first most data label, is it possible to format it such that it would display
480
Blower Rebuild
For the Paragraphize Concept, I notice that the custom data label remains a sentence no matter how long the text is. If the text is to long, I notice it just gets rid of it all together. This worries me for some of the data labels I had in excel. (see picture #2)

Hi parry2k thanks for the feedback. I tried this and also the following, for some reason the text still spans a long sentence. Also the UNICHAR seems to display as 
. Hoping there is a way around this. Also if the text is just too long, the whole data label disappears.

Anonymous I believe then you cannot use LF in the label, I guess this need to be improved, should be a word wrap option. I would recommend to report this as a bug or add this as an idea on the ideas forum.
