How to separate the mixed labels? As show in figure. Below is my code.
clear all; close all; clc;
data=[0.0245,0.1200,0
0.0179,0.2700,4.1000
0.0224,0.2700,5.5000
0.0189,0.1000,3.3000
0.0219,0.1000,0.8000
0.0184,0.3500,0
0.0233,0.1000,2.7000
0.0230,0.1800,4.7000
0.0228,0.1800,4.7000
0.0185,0.2700,3.8000
0.0200,0.2700,4.4000

x = data(:,1);
y = data(:,2);
z = data(:,3);
dz=1;
f=figure;
%t=tiledlayout("flow");
%nexttile(t);
h=scatter3(x,y,z,100,'filled','MarkerEdgeColor','k');
C = jet(numel(x));
h.CData = C;
set(gca, 'colormap', C)
colorbar()
%xlabel('${\it} (A^{2}/B)^{1/4}$','Interpreter','Latex')
xlabel('${\alpha }$','Interpreter','Latex')
ylabel('${\omega }$','Interpreter','Latex')
zlabel('${\varphi}$','Interpreter','Latex')
labels=["d1","d2","d3","d4","d5","d6","d7","d8","d9","p1","p2","p3","p4","v1,v8","v2","v3","v4","v5","v6","v7","v9","v10"];
text(x,y,z+dz,labels,"HorizontalAlignment","center","VerticalAlignment","bottom",'FontSize',10);

Thanks a lot!

hello haya
I have introduced a bit of randomness in the dz so that the labels will be a different heights
dz = 0.2+0.5*rand(size(z));
of course you can adapt the fixed and variable amplitudes so it best matches your expectations
