I'm using ChartJS graphs right now and I want the values of my columns to display without having the user have to hover over the slice or bar they want. How would I make it so that the value of a slice or a bar shows itself without needing user input (the site will be displayed on a TV so there is no user interaction)? I've figured out using annotations for google charts, but I haven't found any counterpart for ChartJS. If you'd like to see any code, I'd be happy to post it. Thanks!

I'll try it out, how do I normally install plugins like this one? I'm not sure how to install chartJS plugins for koolreports. Thanks for the suggestion and the help.

Curious why Koolreport would not have included this as it seems to be a vital function for Chart Displays.

Not all users will be 'interacting' with the reports and it does not allow the data to be displayed upon export or print unless you have a data table to correlate the images of what you see to something meaningful.

After visiting the ChartJs site,

https://www.chartjs.org/docs/2.7.2/notes/extensions.html

and researching the annotations plugin, i believe you are incorrect.

The plugin to display data point values, appears to be

chartjs-plugin-datalabels - Displays labels on data for any type of charts.

That we are looking for.

Thank you , could you post back that link after completion, it would be much appreciated!

I noticed that Chart.php in version 2.5.0 for chartjs already contained

"datalabels"=>array(
                "chartjs-plugin-datalabels.min.js"
            ),

in resourceSettings()

Is there any option that needs to declare for ColumnChart to display data label?

ColumnChart::create(array(
    "title"=>"Sale Report",
    "dataSource"=>$category_amount,
    "columns"=>array(
        "category",
        "sale"=>array("label"=>"Sale","type"=>"number","prefix"=>"$"),
        "cost"=>array("label"=>"Cost","type"=>"number","prefix"=>"$"),
        "profit"=>array("label"=>"Profit","type"=>"number","prefix"=>"$"),
        "team8"=>array("label"=>"Team8","type"=>"number","prefix"=>"$"),
    )
));
