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 automati-
cally 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 parame-
ters.
switched::cget pieBoxLabelerObject option
Returns an option value for the specified pieBoxLabeler object.
OPTIONS
