Line graph Two intersecting lines Automatic placement of data labels

When two intersecting lines are output on a line graph with a monthly horizontal axis, is there a way to make the data label with the larger number appear on the upper side and the smaller one on the lower side?

Hi @parry2k ,

Thanks for the quick response.

Hi @chiba ,

I have some information to add, please refer to.

Based on your description, it seems you're looking for a way to dynamically adjust the placement of data labels based on the value they represent, especially at points where two lines intersect.

 

You could be to use annotations to manually place text boxes or shapes that highlight the values of interest. This method offers more control over the placement but requires manual effort.

@chiba you can adjust the label for each line on format pane but not sure you can put the logic dynamically.
