I have a pie chart with feeler lines and labels and %'s. When the label gets long the feeler lines go into the center of the label and the label gets written into the pie chart. The only solution I've found is to rotate the pie chart.

setPieRotate(75);

Is there a way to automaticly rotate the chart or a way to split a label onto 2 lines in a pie chart. Right now when I see this problem I have to go in and change the value in the rotate.

Thanks,

Lenny

If you try this...it puts the labels outside of the pie...would that help?

setPieFeelerTextDisplay(1);

The labels are appearing outside now.

Here is my focus code.

I didn't see it in your code, but do you have autoplacement turned on?

This line of code would go before the WebFOCUS style sheet.

setPlace(true);

I don't know if it will help - but worth a try if it's not already there.
