How to label only the marked data in Spotfire® Using IronPython Scripting

Introduction

This article explains how we can label only the marked data. For example, if I have five bars in my bar chart and if I click on the first bar, then only that bar will be labeled. Refer to the following screenshot.

 from Spotfire.Dxp.Application.Visuals import BarChart, LabelVisibility
 
 # setMarkedField is the document property which will hold the boolean value
 if setMarkedField == True:
     vis.As[barChart]().LabelVisibility = LabelVisibility.Marked  # This will label only the marked data
 else:
     vis.As[barChart]().LabelVisibility = LabelVisibility.All     # If setMarkedField  is false, then it will label all the data.
