The pie chart can be used, for example, to represent something that is akin to percentages. ie A set of data that
should be taken as part of a whole.

<h2>Methods</h2>
<b>obj.getSegment()</b><br /><br />
obj.getSegment() makes it easy to determine which segment of the Pie chart was clicked on. It provides:
<ul>
<li>Originating X coordinate</li>
<li>Originating Y coordinate</li>
<li>The radius of the segment</li>
<li>The starting angle (in degrees)</li>
<li>The ending angle (in degrees)</li>
<li>The zero-indexed segment number</li>
</ul>
<pre class="code">
<script>
RGraph.Register(myGraph);
myGraph.canvas.onclick = function (e)
{
RGraph.FixEventObject(e);
RGraph.Redraw();
var canvas = e.target;
var context = canvas.getContext('2d');
var obj = canvas.__object__;
<span style="color: green">var segment = obj.getSegment(e);</span>
if (segment) {
context.fillStyle = 'rgba(255,255,255,0.5)';
context.beginPath();
// Angles are provided in degrees, so convert them to radians
segment[3] /= 57.29;
segment[4] /= 57.29;
context.moveTo(segment[0], segment[1]);
context.arc(segment[0], segment[1], segment[2], segment[3], segment[4], 0);
context.stroke();
context.fill();
e.stopPropagation();
}
}
window.onclick = function (e)
{
RGraph.Redraw();
}
</script>
</pre>
<b>obj.Explode()</b><br /><br />
<p>
The Explode() method allows you to programmatically trigger the exploding (ie the highlighting of) a particular segment.
The Explode() method is used like so:
</p>
<pre class="code">
<script>
myObj = new RGraph.Pie('cvs', [8,9,4,6]);
myObj.Draw();
<span style="color: green">myObj.Explode(index, size);</span>
</script>
</pre>
<p>
The index argument is the zero-index segment to operate on (counting from the north axis). An the size is measured in pixels.
</p>
<b>Important Note</b>
<p>
This method was formerly a common object method, called <i>RGraph.getSegment(e)</i>, but has now (6th March 2011) been
moved to be part of the Pie chart object.
