Cfchartseries

you will have to modify the xml stylesheet that controls the chart
appearance.

the default stylesheet used is located in
{cf_install_dir}\charting\styles\default.xml (or default_pie.xml for pie
sharts)

best thing to do is to copy the file into the same folder that the page
generating your cfchart is in.

then open up this file and edit the line
<dataLabels foreground="black"/>
and change it to something like
<dataLabels foreground="black" font="Arial-16-bold" placement="Inside"
style="Value"/>

the placement="Inside" makes the values displayed inside the graph (i.e.
inside the bars in the bar chart)

[you can also modify other setting in that file. the other one i find
useful to change is isHideOverlapped attribute of <labelStyle> in
<xAxis> and <yAxis> to "flase": i.e. <labelStyle
isHideOverlapped="false" orientation="Horizontal"/> - this prevents your
chart from hiding overlapping item/value labels.]

then all you need to do is add
style="name_of_your_modified_xml_file.xml" to your <cfchart> tag. i.e.
if you saved the modified default.xml file as mychartstyles.xml, add
style="mychartstyles.xml" to your <cfchart> tag.
