        // draw label in arc, default is false
        // bar chart ignores this
        arc: true,

        // position to draw label, available value is 'default', 'border' and 'outside'
        // bar chart ignores this
        // default is 'default'
        position: 'default',

        // draw label even it's overlap, default is true
        // bar chart ignores this
        overlap: true,

        // show the real calculated percentages from the values and don't apply the additional logic to fit the percentages to 100 in total, default is false

            width: 16,
            height: 16
          }
        ],

        // add padding when position is `outside`
        // default is 2
        outsidePadding: 4,

        // add margin of text when position is `outside` or `border`
        // default is 2

      }
    }
  }
});

// custom render

  render: function (args) {
    // args will be something like:
    // { label: 'Label', value: 123, percentage: 50, index: 0, dataset: {...} }
    return '$' + args.value;

    // return object if it is image
    // return { src: 'image.png', width: 16, height: 16 };
  }
}

{
  fontColor: function (args) {
