    Display legend entries in chart bars (similar to data labels)

    I have a column chart where I would like to display the legend entries inside the columns, a bit like data labels are possible to display inside the pie pieces in a pie chart. In this way the viewer doesn't need to look in a legend and compare colours to figure out which bar is which.

    I have tried to solve this on my own and looked for an answers on Google but i realize i have to ask somebody for help since i can't seem to find any solution.

    When you click on your chart, click Design tab and from Chart Layouts choose layout you want to see (I guess you want Layout 4).
