# series.pie.data.dataLabels.color

This options is deprecated. Use style.color instead.

The text color for the data labels. Defaults to `undefined`. For certain series types, like column or map, the data labels can be drawn inside the points. In this case the data label will be drawn with maximum contrast by default. Additionally, it will be given a `text-outline` style with the opposite color, to further increase the contrast. This can be overridden by setting the `text-outline` style to `none` in the `dataLabels.style` option.
