To improve the comparison of relative measures on bar visuals, use the Labels shelf to display the measurement value.
To add labels to bar charts, follow these steps.
In the Data menu, select the field for the label.
We are using the population
field.
[Optional] Set the Filter shelf to hold the following fields:
year in (2010)
un_subregion in ('Eastern Europe')
Note how the visual changed. You can see the relative size of total populations for the UN Subregion on one bar, and read off the value.
At the top left corner of the Visual Designer, click Save.
