    When including labels for the bubbles in a scatter plot, currently there is no ability to move these. That creates confusion for overlapping or close data points. If they could be moved around by the user it could make this clearer for the viewer.

    Fully agree - I noted a confusing case where the automatic positioning results in misleading data visualisations here: http://community.powerbi.com/t5/Desktop/simple-scatter-plot/m-p/281088#M125199

    This is an excellent suggestion, I think this would be a great new feature - I wish I had thought of this myself.
