Hope you are doing great and pinging you for one more issue.
I feel this is a bug .. please have a look and confirm.
I am trying to label graphics on my map and am having trouble getting exactly the display that I want.
Using a TextSymbol doesn't work because then they all stack on top of each other making it impossible to see which features are actually at the location.
The tutorial from four years ago about how to cluster the graphics is OK, but I would rather not cluster them. I would prefer that the labels/text symbols move slightly in order to accommodate the other labels around them.
I tried using deconflictionStrategy: static and none and the output is same for both properties which is stacked on top of each other.
P.S: I am not using Portal and using only ArcGIS Server manager Feature Layer URL only and here is the code
