Crystal 9 Pie Chart Data Labels Wont Remove

[dpatrickcollins]

I just created a pie chart in version 9 and decided I did not like the data labels --- those call-outs from each slice of the pie that identify the slice. I removed them through Chart Options>General>Data Labels tab by clearing the SHOW LABELS check box. However, when I close the Preview Window and requery the report, they re-appear. Am I doing something wrong?

Your expert advice is appreciated.

Howdy folks,

Just figured this out with a little more effort. Data Label settings will not be retained if the chart is altered while placed in a group header. (Major bad bug). To get your chart settings to "stick", temporarily drag your chart up to the report header and make your chart setting changes there, then drag back down to the group header of your choosing.
