You can change the orientation of the text to any angle between -90 and +90,
and you can position the labels pretty much anywhere within the plot area.
The orientation cannot be done automatically, but I had a project which
would update the label orientation whenever the chart source data changed.

I have created a ray or radial chart which has data from the origin
(0,0) to a point at (x,y).

This creates something like the hands of a clock but with many more
'hands' of different lengths.

At the end of each ray I have a data label.

Is it possible to line-up the text as an extension of the ray? i.e.
put the text at an angle
