Hi All,

Just wondering if there is also a way to display the actual count of records beside the label (in legend) for Horizontal Bar graph (visualization type), similar to that of visual builder?

Visual Builder sample ~

Horizontal Bar graph sample ~ (with this, we'd have to manually drag the cursor to the bars to see the actual value or count)

Kindly advise.

Thanks and regards,  
Keeshia
