Different, but much easier to solve.
Unfortunately, Matplotlib does not provide any solution for now.

If you're familiar with Python and matplotlib, you may try to code it
by yourself. Otherwise, it may better find other library that does
this for you.

[Matplotlib-users] overlapping text in pie plot

2010-05-24 Thread Fredrik Pihl
Hi,

My boss asked me to provide a list of the source-code distribution per
folder in a project.
Using cloc http://cloc.sourceforge.net/ and some python give me all the numbers.

The problem comes when using pie to display the result, since many folders have
a small distribution, labels are printed ontop of each other making it
impossible to
read.

Using linux-2.6.34 kernel as an example:

8
#!/usr/bin/env python

from pylab import *

#linux-2.6.34
dirs=['arch', 'block', 'crypto', 'Documentation', 'drivers',
'firmware', 'fs', 'include', 'init', 'ipc', 'kernel', 'lib', 'mm',
'net', 'samples', 'scripts', 'security', 'sound', 'tools', 'usr',
'virt']
result=[8433016,1662987,11234,38484,44922,4596534,2048,678518,255574,2289,5478,102723,22516,46726,425009,625,31712,31006,440266,29128,549,3973]

fracs=[100*i/float(result[0]) for i in result[1:]]

#difficult to see all the pie-elements,
for f,l in zip(fracs,dirs):
print l.rjust(20),round(f,2),'\t%'

# make a square figure and axes
figure(1, figsize=(8,8))
ax = axes([0.1, 0.1, 0.8, 0.8])
p=pie(fracs, labels=dirs)
show()
8

some googling gives this thread:
http://www.mail-archive.com/matplotlib-users@lists.sourceforge.net/msg16191.html

but that doesn't solve the problem, just makes it different...

Anyone know of a solution to this problem?

cheers
//Fredrik
