It’s a good question and for now I only have a workaround which is to reduce the `label_text_font_size`. However I think the correct fix is probably to add a `radius` option to the Chord element which would allow shrinking the size of the Chord plot and therefore leave more space for the labels. If you add an issue about that we could probably expose that pretty quickly.
