Auto Position of Data Labels

In the past, for dense data, if we turn on labels, many labels will overlap with one another and hard to read. By Auto position feature, Origin automatically calculate data label positions to avoid overlapping in X, Y or both directions. Also show leader line if the data label exceeds some offset threshold.

How to:

By default, when click on data label and customize or move it, it will move all data labels.

User can click again to select a special label or Ctrl+click to select a single label text. User can drag it to new position. Or double click the special label to customize it. An individual node 7(row index) will be created on the left panel for special point.

For Special label, if Auto Reposition to Avoid Overlapping is selected, it will change with all data labels. If it's clear, changing other labels will not affect the special label's position.
