When pie charts are resized, many times the data labels reposition in such a way that their names are truncated. If we could manually reposition them, it would result in improved readability of the visual. The line connecting the label and the chart should redraw, same as when you resize the entire visual.


Same holds true for bar graphs and donut charts. Sometimes labels overlap (bar + line graph), and being able to nudge one label would make a huge difference.
