Methods

MethodDescription
ClearFormat()Clears format of this data label. The properties are set to the default values defined in the parent data label collection.
get_Font()Provides access to the font formatting of this data label.
get_Format()Provides access to fill and line formatting of the data label.
get_Index()Specifies the index of the containing element. This index shall determine which of the parent’s children collection this element applies to. Default value is 0.
get_IsHidden()Gets/sets a flag indicating whether this label is hidden. The default value is false.
get_IsVisible()Returns true if this data label has something to display.
get_NumberFormat()Returns number format of the parent element.
get_Orientation()
get_Rotation()
get_Separator()Gets or sets string separator used for the data labels on a chart. The default is a comma, except for pie charts showing only category name and percentage, when a line break shall be used instead.
get_ShowBubbleSize()Allows to specify if bubble size is to be displayed for the data labels on a chart. Applies only to Bubble charts. Default value is false.
get_ShowCategoryName()Allows to specify if category name is to be displayed for the data labels on a chart. Default value is false.
get_ShowDataLabelsRange()Allows to specify if values from data labels range to be displayed in the data labels. Default value is false.
get_ShowLeaderLines()Allows to specify if data label leader lines need be shown. Default value is false.
get_ShowLegendKey()Allows to specify if legend key is to be displayed for the data labels on a chart. Default value is false.
get_ShowPercentage()Allows to specify if percentage value is to be displayed for the data labels on a chart. Default value is false.
get_ShowSeriesName()Returns or sets a Boolean to indicate the series name display behavior for the data labels on a chart. true to show the series name; false to hide. By default false.
get_ShowValue()Allows to specify if values are to be displayed in the data labels. Default value is false.
