pie charts

Hi there,

Sometimes, pie charts have some odd issues going on. Like the texts overlapping so much they become unreadable, or the text disappearing at the top (only the underline is visible):

For the first issue, maybe if there are too many texts in one area that would otherwise overlap, it might work better if the slice text would only appear for the slice you hover over? Or it would just say “multiple” and only give a listing in a floating tooltip of the actual items?

Hey Laszlo,

We’re using a 3rd party library for these charts, so unfortunately we don’t have any control over display issues like this. The only solution really is to resize the chart panels so that they have more room.

We’ll log these issues though, and make sure we take a look at an updated version of the chart library when it becomes available.

Cheers,
Ryan

Ah I see. Well, another option is to rewrite it :slight_smile:

Reason i bring this up is that we currently only have about ~12 users on d7 and its already getting cluttered. When we unleash the full 350+, some of these piecharts will become unusable without improving the gui somewhat.
