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.



  

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

  

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