Line and Stacked Column Chart - Data Labels not displaying properly

Hello,

Data Labels are not displaying properly for Column (Label gets cut). Space between Catgories = 20% (Formate Pane -> Columns-> Layout)

Conditions:

1. Size of the visual must remain Same. (201 * 634)

2. Data Label (Column) Position = Inside base ((Formate Pane -> Data Labels-> Options))

3. Orientation = Horizontal

Font: Segoe UI, 8pts

Are there any ways to Display the Lables Properly

Please find screenshot for the same.

Hi  @JD09 ,

 

Are you referring to the fact that data labels do not show all the data.

The length of the data label is determined by the space between the bars, but the data is automatically omitted if the length of the data is greater than the space between the bars.

You can try the following:

Increase the space between the bars: X-axis - Layout - Minimum category width.

Use different data label sizes:

Orientation(column )-Vertical, so that the data is displayed vertically, so that it is not affected by the width of the bar space.
