Collision detection for pie chart labels #382

Closed GoogleCodeExporter closed 9 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 9 years ago
Currently it's easily possible to have plot slice labels clash, rendering 
important parts of a pie chart useless. So it would be meaningful to add a 
collision detection to slice labels and move labels that overlap around, so 
that they stay readable. This might require to add a line from the labels to 
the slices to indicated their beloning.

A very similar problem is that labels can be cut off at the plot area 
boundaries. So by implementing that collision detection this case would be 
solved as well.

I'm fully aware that it is impossible to catch all possible cases, but for many 
it would be a very helpful solution.

The issue is still open. See the Github issue entry. Google code is no longer 
used for coreplot.
