Data Labels for Pie/Donut chart aesthetically

Any tips on improving data labels rendering for pie/donut charts (native visuals)? See below image

 

Its frustrating that even though there is ample of empty space around the donut the labels are being cut off (i tried reducing the font size ... does not help 😞 ... I have even started using legends which ideally I would like to show in data labels).

 

I dont like using Data labels inside (or on the donut) as then they overlap with the center KPI card which shows the total value (this should also have not needed a seperate KPI card) ... and yes want to avoid custom visuals

Hi @cyclist007 ,

Based on my test, it will display (...) when there is no space to display the value, as a workaround, we can enlarge the visual to display the full information. By the way, it will display the detailed information when the text size is small enough, but the smallest size is 8.

This visual is a part of a dashboard so I cannot expand it much more. I am already trying to limit the number of decimal places, and I tried reducing the text sized but it still did not show full values. Would have liked the data labels to auto-size or place themselves such that the entire text is always visible - by auto-size i mean that limit the size of text to when it shows the entire value. There is lots of white space which is not weel utilized.
