[Tex/LaTex] pgfplots – How to use ‘nodes near coords’ with multiple data values for one tick

nodes-near-coordspgfplots

When using displaying multiple values for a tick and then activating the display of the values/coordinates, things get messy. This is why I want to display the values inside of the bar. Or on the right of the very bar they belong to, but I can't get it to work, the vertical alignment is always centered to the tick.

One possibility could be to use the nodes...-options for each \addplot-command and then align them by above right=XYpt for the blue bar and below right vice versa. But that is thrown out the window if I decide to resize the plot a little bit.

nodes near coords align={left},
every node near coord/.style={fill=white, font=\tiny, inner sep=1pt},

\addplot+ table [x=ValueA, y=Process] {\tableabcdef};
\addplot+ table [x=ValueB, y=Process] {\tableabcdef};
\end{axis}

Best Answer

You are overriding the style of the nodes so you need /.append style instead

Modifying only these lines

nodes near coords align={right},
every node near coord/.append style={font=\tiny, inner sep=1pt},

leads to
