Select detail labels to show in pie or donut chart

Hello, I am having difficulties with detail labels in pie charts and donut charts. See screenshot below. Among the smaller values Power BI randomly selects which label to show an which not. I have no influence on it. How can I select to show all or at least how can I choose which ones to show? I already did a search, but the solutions presented do not work in my case. Thanks in advance!

Actually, showing detailed labels of Pie chart or donut chart mainly depends on

  • The represented data in the value and detail axis.
  • The size of the chart visual.

Unfortunately you dont have much control on how the labels will be displayed on donut chart.

It seems PowerBI shows labels on the bigger slices first of the chart than the smaller ones.

 

I suggest you change the label text and make the visual bigger

Or take the small categories and put them in a separate chart
