Have independent controls to include and format data labels when using Line and Column Chart visualizations. This visualization is essential to have data analyses with different value ranges, which means it is likely to have different labeling needs for data expressed in columns than the one used to expressed in lines.

The original request was to format the line and columns separately, which you can do today through the customize series option. Here's a post detailing the feature: https://powerbi.microsoft.com/blog/power-bi-desktop-june-2018-feature-summary/#comboLabels

Please add this feature. QlikView has this feature and was very helpful. Please bring this in PowerBI too.

RE: Independent Data Label Controls in Combo Charts

This is so basic, I really don't understand how this functionality doesn't exist in power BI.

RE: Independent Data Label Controls in Combo Charts

This is an important feature. I'd like to see this soon. Also, the line could be hidden with only the markers visible to put the totals on top of the stack bar.
