Hello everybody,
I created the visualization below, using 2 measures (Sales and Target)
the created code was made as below
But I would like to have the data labels instead of having the y-axis
How should I proceed to be able to insert the data labels?
I know you have to use the MARK TEXT , but I don’t know how to proceed in this case
I thank you for your help
Hi @domingo42
There are often multiple ways of doing something in Deneb/Vega-Lite. Using you code as a start:
To turn off the Y-axis, add an axis/null line into the y encoding block
“axis”: null
As for data labels, you’ll need to add another mark to the spec (this time of type = text). The way forward with you code sample didn’t fall out easily; I’d probably start with a standard line mark for [Sales], add a standard line mark for [Target], then add the text marks before looking into the repeat block (I’ve very little experience with the repeat syntax.). I’d review the examples on the Vega-Lite website for more info.
Hope this helps.
Greg

Thanks Greg,
I also don’t have much knowledge of the Repeat Mark.
I did it using 2 line marks and adding the texts as you mentioned.
Thanks.
Hi @domingo42. I watched some Vega-Lite tutorials over the weekend and gained more insight into the repeat mark and was able to come up with this:
So, while I was able to get the data labels showing, they can overlap and reading them can be challenging; not sure if this is what you were going for, and even though this thread is solved, I decided to post anyway for documentation and in case it is of interest.
