title: SSRS range chart series labels overlap and do not align left
body: <p>I have built a "gantt" style range chart in SSRS using Narayana Palla's model. I am using date parameters to view the data by a date range - my dataset is museum exhibitions over a number of years. I have opted to use the DrawSideBySide  = false custom attribute to display series data but I can not position the series labels as I want. I want them to align left however they align right and overlap with each other. I have tried many different combinations of properties including the smartlabel properties but can not impact on the position of the labels in the series. I have not been able to find a solution in my searching.</p>
  
  <p>I would be happy to have my series displayed using DrawSideBySide = true but the bars are so narrow that neither they nor their labels can be seen. Again I have tried many combinations of properties to set the width of the bars but to no avail. I believe this is due to the number or series in the whole of my chart / dataset. </p>
  
  <p>I would like advice on :
  1. How to adjust the position of the labels in the series OR 
  2. How to fix the width of the series bars so that I can see them on my chart OR
  3. If I am right about the size of the data set making the bars miniscule how can I best resolve this  - say group on year so that only a limited (and therefore hopefully wide) set of series bars appear at a time from page to page.  </p>
  
  <p>Very grateful for any assistance, Sally</p>
