Hi,
I am working through Deneb and trying it out on some work examples. I can’t seem to position the text label correctly. I would like to position the text label at the top of the bar (see yellow below)
I have used the deneb practice file to replicate my problem which I have attached.

Hi @KimC:
The labels in your example were being displayed at the zero Y coordinate as there was no Y encoding for the text mark. Once the “y” block was added to the encoding block (and the “dy” [aka “yOffset”] adjusted), the label positions were improved.
Here’s the code snippet:
...
{
"description": "Total Text Label",
"mark": {
"type": "text",
"baseline": "top",
"dy": -12
},
"encoding": {
"text": {
"field": "Chart E+W+D",
"format": "#,##0,.",
"formatType": "pbiFormat"
},
"y": {"field": "Chart E+W+D"}
}
}
...
Hope this helps.
