Question about pie chart labels.

[billtallitsch]

Hi everyone.

It would be very useful for me to have the ability to create line annotations with the labels that exist in the Sencha Touch 2.1 pie charts. Is this something I have access to in ExtJS 4.1? I have attached a photo of what I am describing.

If this is not possible, may I ask when this functionality will be available in ExtJS 4.1? It is frustrating that the charting tools have differences across libraries.

Moved thread to ExtJS Q&A Forum.

Testing in 4.2.0.489, the labels will be within each slice and not outside with a line connecting the label and the slice.

Thanks Mitchell.

Is this a feature that will be added at some point? Using a pie chart with a lot of data and labels with small slices can get very jumbled. This makes it very hard to use. We are trying to avoid overlapping text. It is a shame this exists in Touch but not ExtJS.

Doing a quick search of our bug system I do not see a feature request for something like this. I would invite you to open a thread in the bugs forum and I can push in as a feature request but I'm not sure what priority this would be given.

Thanks Mitchell I will do that.
