**I am looking for the best way to display data values directly on or inside the bars of a Bar Chart in Ignition. Could someone clarify the steps for both Perspective (XY Chart) and Vision (Bar Chart component) to ensure the labels are clearly visible to users**

Hi, welcome to the forums.

For Perspective’s XY Chart, read this post

> I think i may have just figured this out. Using an XY chart i created a bar graph using the column renderer. then i copied the series and changed the renderer to line. this adds the property “Bullets”. Choosing the label bullet type and then linking to the proper field in the data i was able to have labels. i set the stroke width on the line to 0 to make it disappear and played with the offset property to make the label appear at the top of the bar.

Edit: for Vision; there is a checkbox under the Appearance property called **Labels?** , this will show/hide values on the chart.
