Actually, I'm glad you bring that up. While I don't actually see wedges dropping shadows onto other wedges, what I do see is the pie being slightly larger than it should be. This means it gets cut off on the bottom or right as you resize the browser page. I completely don't understand this as I didn't change any part of your wedge drawing code. This happens even if at the top of getfill I put:
return categories[0].fill So it's none of that code, either. I don't get what it could be. --- In [email protected], "Ely Greenfield" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > > > > Hey, very cool Jason. > > One question -- your app seems to have a drop shadow per wedge...which > makes wedges drop shadows onto other wedges.
