Is there a property or hack that would allow for the numbers (for each
series) in a piechart to appear OUTSIDE the "pie" itself. In other words the
numbers displayed outside the series with lines or arrows pointing to the
corresponding "piece?"
the intent of course is to allow users to see the number when the series is
too small to fit the number inside the chart
thanks?"Outside" labels for pie and doughnut charts were added in RS 2000 SP1.
Check the Readme file of SP1 / SP2:
