Point label position not where expected

I have a simple column chart with point labels. The values are displaying at a -90 angle. I want the values to display in the center of the column, but when I choose the center position, it is displaying at the top; half of the value is in the bar and the other half above. Why?

I believe it places the point label as close to the position as you have set and attempts to avoid running into any other rendered images on your report.

You may want to try scaling the chart so that there is more room for the label to fit. Does your chart seem "crampted"?

|||I don't think it is cramped. There is a main chart which takes up the majority of the page. Then there are three smaller charts lined up vertically off to the right. It is these charts that I'm trying to get the point labels lined up correctly. There are only three bars per chart. To me, it doesn't look like there should be a problem with getting the label centered. I even tried making one of these charts much larger, and it did not change the position at all

Point Label not displaying on a bar chart

I am using Reporting Services 2000.

I have one bar chart that has two values and one group. Everything works fine except when two values are returned, then the point label for the top bar never displays. Example

A (has 2 bars)

B (has 2 bars)

Only the top bar for A will not display the point label. I can change the sort order and make A appear first and then the top bar for B doesn't have the point label now. When I change the order of the values, the top bar that didn't have the label has one because it is second from the top, but the new top bar doesn't. Is this a bug or am I doing something wrong. Thanks.

Try to turn on margins for the x-axis.
