Data label in Angular Accumulation chart component

27 Apr 202424 minutes to read

Data label can be added to a chart series by enabling the visible option in the dataLabel property.

import { NgModule } from '@angular/core'
import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser'
import { AccumulationChartModule } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-charts'
import { PieSeriesService, AccumulationDataLabelService } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-charts'



import { Component, OnInit } from '@angular/core';
import { labelData } from './datasource';
@Component({
imports: [
         AccumulationChartModule
    ],

providers: [PieSeriesService, AccumulationDataLabelService],
standalone: true,
    selector: 'app-container',
    template: `<ejs-accumulationchart id="chart-container">
        <e-accumulation-series-collection>
            <e-accumulation-series [dataSource]='piedata' xName='x' yName='y' [dataLabel]='datalabel'></e-accumulation-series>
        </e-accumulation-series-collection>
    </ejs-accumulationchart>`
})
export class AppComponent implements OnInit {
    public piedata?: Object[];
    public datalabel?: Object;
    ngOnInit(): void {
        this.datalabel = { visible: true };
        this.piedata = labelData;
    }

}
import { bootstrapApplication } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
import 'zone.js';
bootstrapApplication(AppComponent).catch((err) => console.error(err));

Note: To use the data label feature, inject the DataLabel into the @NgModule.providers.

Positioning

Accumulation chart provides support for placing the data label either inside or outside the chart.

import { NgModule } from '@angular/core'
import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser'
import { AccumulationChartModule } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-charts'
import { PieSeriesService, AccumulationDataLabelService } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-charts'



import { Component, OnInit } from '@angular/core';
import { labelData } from './datasource';
@Component({
imports: [
         AccumulationChartModule
    ],

providers: [PieSeriesService, AccumulationDataLabelService],
standalone: true,
    selector: 'app-container',
    template: `<ejs-accumulationchart id="chart-container">
        <e-accumulation-series-collection>
            <e-accumulation-series [dataSource]='piedata' xName='x' yName='y' [dataLabel]='datalabel'></e-accumulation-series>
        </e-accumulation-series-collection>
    </ejs-accumulationchart>`
})
export class AppComponent implements OnInit {
    public piedata?: Object[];
    public datalabel?: Object;
    ngOnInit(): void {
        this.datalabel = { visible: true, position: 'Outside' };
        this.piedata = labelData;
    }

}
import { bootstrapApplication } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
import 'zone.js';
bootstrapApplication(AppComponent).catch((err) => console.error(err));

DataLabel rotation

Using angle property, you can rotate the data label by its given angle.

import { NgModule } from '@angular/core'
import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser'
import { AccumulationChartModule } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-charts'
import { PieSeriesService, AccumulationDataLabelService } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-charts'



import { Component, OnInit } from '@angular/core';
import { labelData } from './datasource';
@Component({
imports: [
         AccumulationChartModule
    ],

providers: [PieSeriesService, AccumulationDataLabelService],
standalone: true,
    selector: 'app-container',
    template: `<ejs-accumulationchart id="chart-container">
        <e-accumulation-series-collection>
            <e-accumulation-series [dataSource]='piedata' xName='x' yName='y' [dataLabel]='datalabel'></e-accumulation-series>
        </e-accumulation-series-collection>
    </ejs-accumulationchart>`
})
export class AppComponent implements OnInit {
    public piedata?: Object[];
    public datalabel?: Object;
    ngOnInit(): void {
        this.datalabel = { visible: true, angle: 90, enableRotation: true },
        this.piedata = labelData;
    }

}
import { bootstrapApplication } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
import 'zone.js';
bootstrapApplication(AppComponent).catch((err) => console.error(err));

Note: when the enableRotation is true, the data label is rotated along the slice.

Smart labels

Data labels will be arranged smartly without overlapping with each other. You can enable or disable this feature using the enableSmartLabels property.

import { NgModule } from '@angular/core'
import { BrowserModule } from '@angular/platform-browser'
import { AccumulationChartModule } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-charts'
import { PieSeriesService, AccumulationDataLabelService } from '@syncfusion/ej2-angular-charts'



import { Component, OnInit } from '@angular/core';
import { labelData } from './datasource';
@Component({
imports: [
         AccumulationChartModule
    ],

providers: [PieSeriesService, AccumulationDataLabelService],
standalone: true,
    selector: 'app-container',
    template: `<ejs-accumulationchart id="chart-container" [enableSmartLabels]='enableSmartLabels'>
        <e-accumulation-series-collection>
            <e-accumulation-series [dataSource]='piedata' xName='x' yName='y' [dataLabel]='datalabel'></e-accumulation-series>
        </e-accumulation-series-collection>
    </ejs-accumulationchart>`
})
export class AppComponent implements OnInit {
    public piedata?: Object[];
    public datalabel?: Object;
    public enableSmartLabels?: boolean;
    ngOnInit(): void {
        this.datalabel = { visible: true, name: 'text', position: 'Outside' };
        this.enableSmartLabels = true;
        this.piedata = labelData;
    }

}
import { bootstrapApplication } from '@angular/platform-browser';
import { AppComponent } from './app.component';
import 'zone.js';
bootstrapApplication(AppComponent).catch((err) => console.error(err));
