Hi All,

I'm trying to show values on histogram visualisation created with lens.  
I can't find the option to get this results...  
I'm missing something?  
Could anyone point me to the solution?

Thanks in advance!

This isn't possible at the moment - the feature request is tracked here: [[Lens] Enable value labels on chart for other xy chart types · Issue #82954 · elastic/kibana · GitHub](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/82954)

You might be able to switch to the "aggregation based" bar chart visualization which do allow this.

Thanks @flash1293 for the info.

I moved to use lens for this visualisation because I'm needing of custom formulas for ratio calc...  
`count() / overall_sum(count())`
