How to configure Data lables on a line chart?

Untitled2.jpg

Hi I have a Line chart with 4 lines.

 

2 of the lines are very tigth and the issue is the data labels on the lines are "changing places" if you can say so.

Sometimes the lable for the line above is showing below and the lable for the line below is showing above.

It would be prefereable if the lables were following the lines.

Anyone who knows a solution for this?

Hi LS,

 

In your scenario, there are too many data labels and these data value are closed. Though we set label position as Below or Top, Power BI will adjust the labels position to avoid overlapping and make it easy readable.

As a workaround, you can change height of line chart to make lines be sparse. Click General->Height.
