Overlapping labels #1995

@alexkivikoski

Description

@alexkivikoski

Steps to reproduce

  1. Create a Series (Column/Line/Scatter) with a lot of data (with little variance in Y axis value)
  2. Set LabelFormatString to show individual values on data points
  3. Observe how the labels fit the plot - they will easily overlap

Platform: Android and iOS (using Xamarin - but not tied to the platform, I believe, so I add this to this main repo)
.NET version: .NET Standard 2.0

Expected behaviour

The data should be legible to the user.

Actual behaviour

Screenshot 2023-05-09 at 15 45 22 The labels overlap and are hard to read.

Feature description

Control is needed over the label placement. Rotation options, option to hide colliding labels or possibly some algorithm to fit them in the frame by shifting the position.
