Stacked area chart data label position is not working ... Auto/Above/Under

[rbbi]

I'm changing the data labels position from Auto to Above and Under but the labels aren't moving.

Shouldn't they move to the positions indicated in the screen shot below?

Hi @rbbi, 

PG team created a bug (low-priority) to track this issue. Likely this option needs to be disabled for the stacked area chart; if the labels are placed anywhere other than "within" the area it labels, there could be ambiguity what series each label is describing.
