Re: cnInfoLabels overlap

Or you could set the cnInfoLabelZone of one of the labels to the
value 4, 1 greater than the default value of 3.
The 'zones' define concentric bands around the plots and annotations
with higher zone numbers are automatically
placed outside the perimeter of lower numbered zones.
