Hide Collided Data Labels

Hi,

 

Power BI's native visuals (such as column chart) hide or shift the data labels very intelligently when they detect a collision.

I want to implement the same in a custom visual, but don't seem to find any practical example

 I believe it has something to do with chartutils' ....dataLabelManager.hideCollidedLabels function as shown in image below
But I dont know how to implement this. For example what is lableLayout.

Could you guide me ?

Hello, Zubair,

 

I'm wondering if you found an practical example of the hideCollideLabels implementation? I'm building a custom scatterplot and I want the category labels to rearrange in order not to overlap.

 

Regards,

Italo
