Displaying values in charts

You can display values and percentages directly on charts from the Visualization tab when you edit a chart. The availability of these options depends on the chart you are editing.

The options available in the Visualization tab vary depending on the selected charts. This page explains how to display values directly on charts when these options are available.

Displaying values can be useful when you want to see numeric results directly in the chart without relying on legends.
