John -

Does it work on a 2D bar chart? I've seen some funny alignments on
charts with 3D effects, and IMNSHO, 3D charts have the special capacity
to distort data. If you can get by with a 2D chart, you should, because
it will actually be more readily comprehended by the viewer, without
risking inadvertent distortion. (Intentional distortion is another
matter, hehe.)

overlaps the edge of the bar and looks sloopy. Users of
the chart have to manually adjust the label and it takem
