Hi all

I've got a overcrowded bar chart and quantity labels ended one above other when the bars are together.

is there any way to force not to show labels for every bar?

thanks in advance

If you wanted to show them for every other series you could do something like this

counter = 0;

function beforeDrawDataPointLabel( dph, label, icsc )
{
  if(counter == 0) {
    counter++;
    label.getCaption().setValue("")
  }else{
    counter = 0;
  }
}

I must put the code on the "on render" event, I guess ?

Anyway, maybe I've wrote it wrong. I mean, there is no more series. Just One, but so many bars that the numbers overlapped.

Yeah, this code will go in the onRender() of the chart. Let me know if it works for you! Smile
