Add percentage to the pie chart in statistics feature #265

Open ChristophyBarth opened 5 years ago

ChristophyBarth commented 5 years ago

Components

The component /feature I want to suggest is that percentage should be added to the pie chart in the statistics feature.


Proposal Description

I am requesting that a percentage option should also be added to the pie chart in the statistics. Some users like me would want to know how many percentage of their time they've given to a particular activity. The percentage option is actually important as it is more like a whole summary of the time given for activities. This feature can be added anywhere around the name of the activity. Looking closely at the mockup below, you can see that I added the percentage directly below the activity's name (because I think that's the best place to fix it).


Mockup/Example

Below is am example of the feature which I requested. It is a screenshot which I edited. PicsArt_05-18-10 34 32


Benefits

If the project owner can consider adding this feature, users will be able to know the percentage of time that has been given to an activity. Therefore making it more easier to understand the pie chart.

Conclusion

I don't think this feature is common. Even the similar app which I compared this app with doesn't seem to have such a feature.This feature will also help make the app more outstanding. However, I'm certain that other users like me are really willing to see the percentage option.

Adding the percentage is a good idea, but I think it is not possible with the currently used library to put it in a separate line, but we can add it to the amount of time, and maybe make it configurable whether to show the percentage, the time or both.

That shouldn't be a hard task to program. @chrisbarth01 are you interested to do some coding for that? - You're profile tells you're a "Open Source Software Contributor", so it would be well fitting task! For sure I can assist in case you need help.

Hello @ramack, I'm glad you have intentions to add this feature. Yes, I am actually an Open-source software contributor but I haven't gone into coding yet. If I had, I would be glad to add this feature myself. However, provided you've add the 'help wanted' label, I believe we'll get someone who can do the coding. Thanks!

Hello @ramack, I was thinking if you need help with any sort of proofreading..... I'll be glad to offer my service.
