Value labels for markers in a Combo charts

Anonymous — Mon, 14 May 2018 07:43:52 GMT

Hello,

I'm trying to insert value labels for markers in a combo chart (in Qlik Sense) and even though the Qlik Continuous Classroom training video on Combo charts show that it's possible (see screen shot below), I'm unable to find the "point labels" option.

Anyone else encountered a similar issue?

Hi! You need to click on "show data points" first, then the option appears.

Hi Ivan, thanks a lot for your suggestion. However that is only available if you use "Line". I'm using "Markers" as it's more appropriate to the content.

Is there a way to label the markers?

No, It is not possible to show labels for measures shown as markers.

With the latest versions of QS, a workaround for this is to create an additional expression on top, which happens to be exactly the same, but display it as a line.

Then, on the colour options for this new expression, set the colour to be =ARGB(0,0,0,0) to make the line transparent. After that, you can enable the 'Point labels' option under Presentation tab.
