RepositionDataTextCollision

This property repositions the data text value if multiple data text values are colliding.

Syntax:

setRepositionDataTextCollision(value);

where:

value

Is an integer from 1 to 10 that specifies the number of times to recursively go through and attempt to move data text around until the best solution is found. The default value is 4. The value 0 turns this property off.

Note:

• This property is part of setPlace(true). To override the default, setPlace(false) is required.
• This API call does not work with stacked charts. For stacked charts, you can use setRepositionStackedDataTextCollision.

Example:

With setRepositionDataTextCollision(0), the data text overlaps for points where the two series have the same value:

setRepositionDataTextCollision(0);

With setRepositionDataTextCollision(4), the data text has been moved so it does not overlap:

setRepositionDataTextCollision(4);
