Description of the problem including expected versus actual behavior:

When I try to make multiple gauges (5) the number cannot be displayed if it has more than 5 digits, including decimal points. This might be OK for simple counts of small data sets, but is unusable for real-world use.

For more terms it is even worse:

That is simply too few for practical use, as anything in the thousands is not visible. Consider that a second has more than a thousand miliseconds, making these impractical for very common time periods. Also, if you use any type of aggregation (average, median, etc.) you will definitely have lots of decimal points to content with.

You should automatically move the text below the gauge if there will be overlap.

Steps to reproduce:

1. Create a Gauge visualization.
2. Split by Term.
3. Watch text disappear for small numbers.
