Radar Charts

[Graysleaf]

Hello,
How do you move labels on a radar chart? I have 45 "Pie" slices that have a description for each and they are illegible at twelve and six o'clock positions. The labels overlap each other. Is there a way to separate the labels a bit further or change their axis to be radial instead of horizontal?

2 things come to mind, open the chart on a new sheet, this gives more space, you can then click on any item in the chart and right click edit

Yes thank you Dryver, I can select the label but I'm unable to move them independently from the entire graph. Is there a way to separate the label from the graph?

When labels are selected, all labels are changed together, so changing text direction doesn't work.

When you click on the category, right click on the mouse, then select format category labels at the bottom
on the box that opens, on Format Category labels you have many options to adjust both the text and Axis option.
You need to sect what you want by clicking on the picture, the bucket or pen etc.

After that I am clueless

Pie slices in a radar chart? I don't know what you mean by that.

If you are asking about data labels attached to data points, you can click once to select a series of labels, then click again (two single clicks, not a double click) to select just one label. Now you can drag the individual label around with the mouse.

There are probably better chart types than a radar chart, which will show the data better and allow for better label placement.
