Hi, is there a way to offset point labels on maps so we can display both the point icon and its label without one on top of the other? Thanks!

Unfortunately that is not possible today on Elastic Maps.

You are welcome to [open a feature request](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/new?template=Feature_request.md) in the Kibana repository with as many details on the requirements as possible
