NAME

Tk::ForDummies::Graph::Pie - Extension of Canvas widget to create a pie graph.

DESCRIPTION

Tk::ForDummies::Graph::Pie is an extension of the Canvas widget. It is an easy way to build an interactive pie graph into your Perl Tk widget. The module is written entirely in Perl/Tk.

You can set a background gradient color.

When the mouse cursor passes over a pie slice or its entry in the legend, the pie slice turn to a color (that you can change) and a balloon box display to help identify it.

You can use 3 methods to zoom (vertically, horizontally or both).

BACKGROUND GRADIENT COLOR

You can set a background gradient color by using all methods of Tk::Canvas::GradientColor. By default, it is not enabled.

To enabled background gradient color the first time, you firstly have to call enabled_gradientcolor method and configure your color and type of gradient with set_gradientcolor.

$GraphDummies->enabled_gradientcolor();
$GraphDummies->set_gradientcolor(
    -start_color => '#6585ED',
    -end_color   => '#FFFFFF',
);

Please, read "WIDGET-SPECIFIC METHODS" in Tk::Canvas::GradientColor documentation to know all available configurations.

  -background => 'white',
  -linewidth  => 2,
)->pack(qw / -fill both -expand 1 /);

  [ 'Europe', 'Asia', 'Africa', 'Oceania', 'Americas' ],

Many options allow you to configure your graph as you want. The default configuration is already OK, but you can change it.

Name: Title

Class: Title

Switch: -title

Position of title : center, left or right

-titleposition => 'left',

Default : center

Title color of your graph.

-titlecolor => 'red',

Default : black

Class: LineWidth

Switch: -linewidth

Set width of all lines slice pie inthe graph.

-linewidth => 10,

Default : 1

Name: Colordata

Class: ColorData

Switch: -colordata

This controls the colors of the lines. This should be a reference to an array of color names.

-colordata => [ qw(green pink blue cyan) ],

Default :

[ 'red',     'green',   'blue',    'yellow',  'purple',  'cyan',
  '#996600', '#99A6CC', '#669933', '#929292', '#006600', '#FFE100',

  'black',   '#FFCCFF', '#99CCFF', '#FF00CC', '#FF8000', '#006090',
],

The default array contain 24 colors. If you have more than 24 samples, the next line will have the color of the first array case (red).

Name: Startangle

Class: StartAngle

Switch: -startangle

The angle at which the first data slice will be displayed, with 0 degrees being "3 o'clock".

-startangle => 90,

Default : 0

The Canvas method creates a widget object. This object supports the configure and cget methods described in Tk::options which can be used to enquire and modify the options described above.

disabled_automatic_redraw

$GraphDummies->disabled_automatic_redraw

When the graph is created and the widget size changes, the graph is automatically re-created. Call this method to avoid resizing.

$GraphDummies->disabled_automatic_redraw;

enabled_automatic_redraw

$GraphDummies->enabled_automatic_redraw

Use this method to allow your graph to be recreated automatically when the widget size change. When the graph is created for the first time, this method is called.

$GraphDummies->enabled_automatic_redraw;

clearchart

$PieGraphDummies->clearchart: This method allows you to clear the graph. The canvas will not be destroy. It's possible to redraw your last graph using the redraw method.

plot

$PieGraphDummies->plot(\@data, ?arg): Use this method to create your pie graph.

\@data

Fill an array of arrays with the legend values and the values of the datasets (\@data). Make sure that every array have the same size, otherwise Tk::ForDummies::Graph::Pie will complain and refuse to compile the graph.
```
my @data = (
    [ '1st', '2nd', '3rd', '4th', '5th', '6th', '7th', '8th', '9th' ],
    [ 1,     2,     52,    6,     3,     17.5,  1,     43,    10 ]
);
```
@data have to contain two arrays, the legend values and the values of the datasets.

If you don't have a value for a point in a dataset, you can use undef, and the point will be skipped.
```
[ 1,     undef,     5,     6,     3,     1.5,   undef,     3,     4 ]
```

-substitutionvalue => real number,

If you have a no real number value in a dataset, it will be replaced by a constant value.

Default : 0

my @data = (
     [ '1st', '2nd', '3rd', '4th', '5th', '6th', '7th', '8th', '9th' ],
     [ 1,     '--',     5,     6,     3,     1.5,   1,     3,     4 ],
);
$PieGraphDummies->plot( \@data,
  -substitutionvalue => '12',
);
 # mistake, -- and NA will be replace by 12

-substitutionvalue have to be a real number (ex : 12, .25, 02.25, 5.2e+11, etc ...)

redraw

Redraw the graph.

If you have used clearchart for any reason, it is possible to redraw the graph. Tk::ForDummies::Graph::Pie supports the configure and cget methods described in the Tk::options manpage. If you use configure method to change a widget specific option, the modification will not be display. If the graph was already displayed and if you not resize the widget, call redraw method to resolv the bug.

...
$fenetre->Button(-text => 'Change title', -command => sub { 
  $PieGraphDummies->configure(-title => 'other title'); 
  } 
)->pack;
...
# title will be changed but not displayed if you not resize the widget.
 
...
$fenetre->Button(-text => 'Change title', -command => sub { 
  $PieGraphDummies->configure(-title => 'other title'); 
  $PieGraphDummies->redraw; 
  } 
)->pack;
...
# OK, title will be changed and displayed without resize the widget.

zoom

zoom the graph (vertical and horizontal zoom).

$PieGraphDummies->zoom($zoom);

$zoom must be an integer great than 0.

Ex : 300*300 size
$PieGraphDummies->zoom(50); # size divide by 2 => 150*150
...
$PieGraphDummies->zoom(200); # size multiplie by 2 => 600*600
...
$PieGraphDummies->zoom(120); # 20% add in each axis => 360*360
...
$PieGraphDummies->zoom(100); # original resize 300*300.

zoomx

Horizontal zoom.

# original canvas size 300*300
$PieGraphDummies->zoomx(50); # new size : 150*300
...
$PieGraphDummies->zoom(100); # new size : 300*300

zoomy

Vertical zoom.

# original canvas size 300*300
$PieGraphDummies->zoomy(50); # new size : 300*150
...
$PieGraphDummies->zoom(100); # new size : 300*300
