Hi,
I know that series labels are displayable on the right or left of a line chart, but is it possible to display labels at the last data point for a given line? Here's an example of what I mean:
The client would like to see Labels 1/2/3 with dollar amounts.
Data will be dynamic based on selection from a slicer, so static textboxes will not work.
Thoughts? Suggestions? Workarounds?
@EL_C , I have done something in past, not sure if the same can work in this case
This is close, but not exactly what I'm after. I need to display more than the dollar value, I need to show the name of the series as well.
So if I have the following table, and Sales is on the y-axis and Month is on the x-axis, I need a label that shows "Sales, $800," for Mar-2022.
Sales | Month |
$400 | Jan-2022 |
$600 | Feb-2022 |
$800 | Mar-2022 |
Here is an example of the functionality I'd like to see: https://depictdatastudio.com/directly-labeling-line-graphs/#:~:text=In%20Microsoft%20Excel%2C%20righ....
@EL_C , for that, refer if this custom label can help

Hi, @EL_C
Normally, you can't add "point" to a line chart. But you can try to create a measure to get the value for March and the other months as blank. You can try the following methods.
Measure =
Var N1=CALCULATE(MAX('Table'[Month]),ALL('Table'))
Var N2=CALCULATE(MAX('Table'[Sales]),FILTER(ALL('Table'),[Month]=N1))
return
IF(SELECTEDVALUE('Table'[Month])=N1,N2,BLANK())
Open data tab for Measure only.
Does this resemble the results you expect?

Hi, thanks for your response, @v-zhangti . Unfortunately this is a similar, if not the same, solution as the one provided by @amitchandak, which only showed the dollar amount on the chart, and not the series title.
Using your example, the solution I'm looking for is for the label to read "Sales, $800".
