# Chart labels

The Chart labels property defines which labels are displayed for chart elements.

#### Value type

**Chart labels** are of value type *text*. If another value type such as number or date is specified, it is converted into a text.

If a chart label value is empty, no label is displayed for this data set.

#### Example

In this example, only the value of the largest bar is to be displayed for the bar chart. For this purpose, a table widget is specified which has empty cells except at the position assigned to the corresponding data record in the table.
