NAME

pieBoxLabeler - tkpiechart pie box style labeler class

SYNOPSIS

stooop::new pieBoxLabeler canvas ?options?


switched::configure pieBoxLabelerObject ?options?


switched::cget pieBoxLabelerObject option





 


DESCRIPTION

The pie box style labeler object is used as a slice label placer for a
  pie object and is passed to the pie constructor via its -labeler
  option (see the pie class manual).


The labels are arranged in 2 columns below the pie graphics. Each label text is
  placed to the right of a rectangle, the background color of which matches its
  corresponding slice. The slice share value is placed to the right of the label
  text, separated by a semicolon. Each label is actually a canvasLabel object
  (see the canvasLabel class manual for further information).


There is no need to delete a pieBoxLabeler object as it is automatically
  handled by the pie class.


  
stooop::new pieBoxLabeler canvas ?options?

  
Creates a pieBoxLabeler object in the specified Tk canvas. The
      pieBoxLabeler object identifier is returned (referred to as
      pieBoxLabelerObject in this document).





  
switched::configure pieBoxLabelerObject ?options?

  
Configures a pieBoxLabeler object or returns all the options with their
      current values if no options are passed as parameters.





  
switched::cget pieBoxLabelerObject option

  
Returns an option value for the specified pieBoxLabeler object.




OPTIONS



  
-font value

  
Specifies a font for the slice labels. If not specified, the default font
      is system dependent.





  
-justify value

  
Specifies how to justify labels within their own column. Must be one of
      left, center or right. Defaults to left. For
      example, if justification is right, all column labels right edges
      are aligned.





  
-offset value

  
Specifies the distance between the pie graphics and the closest slice
      label. This value may be specified in any of the forms described in the
      canvas COORDINATES manual section.
