By default, chart labels use the name of the underlying
data item label. You can change the label text to make it more meaningful.
For example, you can rename a chart item labeled ISO_3_Letter_Code to Country or Region.
If you specify custom labels for a microchart or win-loss charts,
the custom labels appear in the tooltips, not on the chart itself.
Procedure
- Click the chart node member or measure.
- In the Properties pane, under the Chart
Labels, set the Custom Label property to Show.
A new chart text item appears above the default measure or below
the chart node member.
- Do one of the following:
- To change the text of the label, double-click
the chart text item and type the text.
- To change the source of the label text, select the new chart
text item. In the Text Source section of the Properties pane,
set the Source Type property.
If nothing is specified in the new chart text item, the label
appears blank.
Tip: To remove a custom label, set the Custom
Label property to Hide.
