Pie Chart Label Spacing

[Alex]

I'm having an issue spacing out labels for a pie chart. I've tried playing with label margins and positions with no effect. See attached Img. The problem is when two or more very small slices of the pie are next to each other the labels overlap. How can I organize or space out these labels?

Thanks for any help.

Hi Alex,

What you need to do is to set to true the IntelligentLabelsEnabled property. It can be done either programmatically or declaratively.

<telerik:RadChart ID="RadChart1" IntelligentLabelsEnabled="true" runat="server">

RadChart1.IntelligentLabelsEnabled = true;

In case, this proves insufficient to achieve good appearance, you could increase the distance between the pie and the labels.

<telerik:ChartSeries Type="Pie" Appearance-ShowLabelConnectors="true" Appearance-LabelAppearance-Distance="200">

pieSeries.Appearance.LabelAppearance.Distance = 200;

All the best, Rosko
