Add labels for each category in pie charts #9

Open wenzeslaus opened 5 years ago

Can the pie charts have the category names as part of the tick mark in addition to the percentage similarly to what the Google Sheets charts have. For small number of categories (like the pathway chart) the current state with only the legend is OK, but for larger number of categories (like the ports of entry chart) it is difficult to match over ten different colors.

This really depends on whether or not plotly/Dash supports that or not.

This would greatly lower the need for better color table which is difficult with so many categories (#5).

It will be difficult. Plotly handles tick marks and labels in a certain way for each filtering result chart which means I need to manually redraw labels and tick for each chart. In addition, there is no interface to change such details using Plotly.
