You can pick Show Series for all series of labels at once, if you select the
chart, go to the Chart menu Chart Options Data Labels tab. This does all
series at once, not just the ones you've already labeled.

You cannot apply other formatting to more than one series of labels at a
time.

I've applied data labels to a pivot chart (PivotChar Tools/Layout/Data
Labels/Inside End).

Then, i actually want the data series name to show instead of the value
and
also want the text orientation to be vertical.

I can change this for a single data series, but not for all at once.

Am i missing something ?
