bar chart series label visual function cannot work well

[Freddy]

hello there,

There is an common bug in bar chart with the type of "bar", if the value become 0 along with some other negative values, the label of value 0 will overlap the category axis label, please see the attached image.

So here I want move the series label to left of the value axis with the visual function. please refer to telerik demo.

With the visual function, the series label is clipped, and no matter what number of the plot area margin I set , it cannot show the label completely. Is there any way to realize this effect?

It is great if there is a good way to make the label which value is 0 will not overlap the category label.

 

Thanks in advance.

Hi Freddy,

In the provided dojo the 0 label does not cover the categoryAxis label, however I observed that the value 10 is clipped. To avoid this problem you should set the panes.clip option to false. For your convenience here is the updated dojo.

Hello lliana,

Firstly thanks a lot for your answer about the clip. It make sense.

The previous demo I used the visual function to change the position of series label, without visual function it will cover the category axis label, you can refer to this demo.  I don't know whether there is an solution to fix this cover issue.

Hi,

You can employ some trickery such as margins, but the generic solution is the so-called "smart labels" feature.
What it does is to offset each overlapping label and add a connection pointing to its original location.

Please, file a request for this feature on our UserVoice portal if you have minute.
This will help us gauge the overall interest and prioritize.
