PiePlot3D not showing values anymore in labels

[heijho01]

I updated my project from 0.9.16 to 0.9.17 and because of that I changed the following things (from - to):

Code: Select all

plot.setShowSeriesLabels(true);
plot.setSectionLabelType(plot.VALUE_AND_PERCENT_LABELS);

===============================================

plot.setLabelGenerator(new StandardPieItemLabelGenerator("dagen: ", NumberFormat.getNumberInstance(), NumberFormat.getPercentInstance()));

problem is that now the labels are showing + the the name "days: " but then no value is shown... What does cause this?

Many thanks

The StandardPieItemLabelGenerator class now uses a MessageFormat instance to create the labels. You need to insert '{0}' in your format string wherever you want the key to appear, '{1}' for the value and '{2}' for the percentage. So try something like this:

Code: Select all

plot.setLabelGenerator(new StandardPieItemLabelGenerator("dagen: {0} = {1} ({2})", NumberFormat.getNumberInstance(), NumberFormat.getPercentInstance()));

ok, I understand now ... guess I didn't read the NumberFormat documentation as good as I should.

Thanks

Jeroen,
the thing is that the StandardPieItemLabelGenerator uses a java.text.MessageFormat internally.
Its documentation is the one that could clarify what's happening

One should also mention that {0} is the string representation of the pie section key, {1} is the absolute value for the pie section and {2} is the percent amout of the pie section. Should be in the javadocs... i'll add it.
