Pie and Labels

Post by rmk » Tue May 02, 2006 2:40 pm

Hello,

I have a pie Chart, but I don't know how to change the positioning of labels.
You can see what I want to obtain at this url :

Is there an easy way to do that ?

There isn't. JFreeChart used to draw labels that way, but it resulted in a lot of complaints about overlapping labels, which is why the new mechanism was implemented. If I get some time, I'll take another look at the PiePlot class and see if the old behaviour could be added back as a non-default option.

I would also appreciate having more labeling-strategies.
