I'm sorry, but this is not what the issue is: I don't want to create percentages as labels, but simply show percentages from the values in the chart. For instance, The label shows the value and below it the percentage. That's the real questions.

Leila, love your vids, thank you so much! Question, if the data has several items with very small percentages (<6%) and one item that is say >94%, how would you recommend displaying the data showing the smaller items (~8 items) and still being able to see the percentage for each smaller item? TY so much!

I am running Excel 2016 on Mac and on selecting the stacked column chart, total for me comes as a category on the horizontal axis instead of it being stacked on top like it is coming for you. How do I change it to the way it is coming up for you? Thanks!

The last part of the video where you say use the Y Axis to deduce the value is a little too confusing at times so why don’t we create a VBA code and give the control to the user to se the values or values as percentages through the code. Just a thought.

Hey Leila, I'm trying to add percentage differences like you've shown in the video. However, I'm using a column chart and not a stacked chart and which has two series of data . I've tried adding a new series and then removing the colour and the column line, so the new series sits behind the column I want to show, but for some reason the new data series is not hiding behind the first series. No matter how much overlap I apply, the new series sits between the two columns. Obviously, I want to use the third series to add the % data labels. Do you have any tutorials which can help me resolve this issue? Hope you can help. Thanks.
