[FEATURE]: Intelligent Labeling #7560
Description
Description
Add intelligent labeling for visualizations such that helpful labels are present on the data visualization without making the labels or the visualization difficult to read and interpret. Screenshots below.
Why should this feature be added?
This feature is already present in data visualization tools like Tableau. Some users who want to migrate from Tableau to Dash would like to have this feature as they make the migration.

Notes

This looks similar to #4674. Should we close one of these?

@ndrezn can you follow up on priority for this issue since it seems like a really good one to keep at the top of the backlog?

We can close this in favour of #4674 as @michaelbabyn suggests.
