Hello,

hi, @Luukv93

Power BI does not handle alternate or customer data labels very well but here is a hack that might work for you.

 

Make your chart a Line and Column Mixed chart put the Count on the Columns and PCT on the Line. 

In the formatting panel

  1. Turn on Data Lables
  2. Under Y Axis be sure Show Secondary is turned on and make the text color the same as your background if you want to hide it
  3. Under Shapes set the Sroke Width to 0 and show markers off (this turns off the line and you only see the labels

You get what you asked for but I don't really like the way its laid out - inconsitent placment sometime % is below the Value and other time above.
