Power BI Treemap visual not showing all data labels when filterd

[venriquez]

Hello, 

I have a treemap visual on a dashboard and when I filter it some of the data labels disappear and no matter how I size it, they will not show up.

This is what it looks like before the filter, all labels and categories show:

I have a filter to filter by month and when I click the July or August options, the data label for Hillsdale disappears:

As you can see above the category is visible but not the label. I can not make them smaller or else you can't read them and I doesn't work anyway. Any suggestions? The table I am using looks like the one below:

Hi @venriquez,

This behavior happens because Power BI automatically manages label visibility in the Treemap based on the space available for each category. When you apply a filter like Month, some groups may become smaller, causing Power BI to hide their data labels to keep the visual clear and avoid overlap. To address this, you can right-click the Treemap’s category fields and select “Show items with no data” so space stays reserved even with filters. Also, try increasing the Label density in the Format pane - Data labels or enabling Overflow text if your version supports it. If the problem continues, consider grouping very small categories into an “Other” group, since Treemap labels disappear below a certain rectangle size. You might also use a Tooltip or Card visual for exact values, or switch to a stacked bar or matrix view for better readability when filtering. This is a visual limitation, not a data error, and these steps can help make the labels more visible.

Thank you.

No this issue has not been resolved. When filtered the data labels are still not showing on at least one of the squares depending on what month I use to filter.

bien ante la duda recree con los datos que indicas y sub segmente por mes ... para evaluar si el comportamient era erratico en agosto y no es asi... te los muestra sin problemas. revisa bien los subfiltros que tenga ese objeto visual ó la hoja...

Visualmente detecto que hay un erro en los datos que estas analizando, por que incluyes la fila de totales y esto ya deberia ser un calculo global sobre los datos y de alli puede venir la afectacion de los datos. entonces prueba sacando esa ultima fila y reevalue el comportamiento.

Thank you for your response, but I am not using that row for the visual. Here is the data being used in the visual

I did remove that row as suggested and it did not fix the problem, now when I filter by month Lenawee and Hillsdale don't show their data for August
