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.

       The labeler has the following specific tag (see the canvas manual page ITEM IDS AND TAGS section for more
       information):
