Line and Stacked Column Chart with Column Legend doesn't show data labels
Solution SageIt's likely a spacing issue. I was able to get it to work:
Solution SageYou need to make sure the data labels are turned on for All series.
Unfortunately, Data Labels are enabled for all series.
I did find out my total labels were disabled, I re-enabled them and got those labels to work. However I still can't see the labels when I select elements. Like so. It may very well be a spacing issue.- CoreyP
It looks like your data label position setting is set to "outside end." Change it to "Auto"
These are my settings at present, I did try tweaking the position (line) and orientaiton(column) none seemed to add the labels I needed.
It's worth mentioning that, to select the data I'm using a table as I want to be able to view the subset of data against the total (like in the first picture where there was no column legend.Finally, "outside end" doesn't seem to be an option in the dropdown menu. Only "inside end", "inside center", and "inside base". Could this be a sign of a versioning issue?
Edit:
As soon as I removed the column legend then attempted to select with the table, everything worked exactly as I intended. Even though the column legend and table select were using the same field.
