Give me the option to put the number in huge font onto each bar. The reason is, if this panel is to be used on an assembly line, the values sometimes need to be seen from far away, not just when mousing-over.

Also The text is too light on the H and V axis - better to let me change that, make it larger, darker, smaller, etc…

@Bryan_Chase,

I’ve made multiple feature requests to our engineering team to cover these options - both for the customizable axis text, and overlaying the value directly onto the bar chart.

I’ll follow up when we have an update.

Thanks!
