Label outside arc (Pie chart) d3.js

问题

I'm new to d3.js and I"m trying to make a Pie-chart with it. I have only one problem: I can't get my labels outside my arcs... The labels are positioned with arc.centroid

arcs.append("svg:text")
    .attr("transform", function(d) {
        return "translate(" + arc.centroid(d) + ")";
    })
    .attr("text-anchor", "middle")

Who can help me with this?

回答1:

I can solve that problem - with trigonometry :).

See fiddle: http://jsfiddle.net/nrabinowitz/GQDUS/

Basically, calling arc.centroid(d) returns an [x,y] array. You can use the Pythagorean Theorem to calculate the hypotenuse, which is the length of the line from the center of the pie to the arc centroid. Then you can use the calculations x/h * desiredLabelRadius and y/h * desiredLabelRadius to calculate the desired x,y for your label anchor:

.attr("transform", function(d) {
    var c = arc.centroid(d),
        x = c[0],
        y = c[1],
        // pythagorean theorem for hypotenuse
        h = Math.sqrt(x*x + y*y);
    return "translate(" + (x/h * labelr) +  ',' +
       (y/h * labelr) +  ")"; 
})

The only downside here is that text-anchor: middle isn't a great choice anymore - you'd be better off setting the text-anchor based on which side of the pie we're on:

.attr("text-anchor", function(d) {
    // are we past the center?
    return (d.endAngle + d.startAngle)/2 > Math.PI ?
        "end" : "start";
})

回答2:

Specifically for pie charts, the d3.layout.pie() function will format data with a startAngle and endAngle attributes. The radius can be whatever you desire (how far out from the center you would like to place the label).

Combining these pieces of information with a couple trigonometric functions lets you determine the x and y coordinates for labels.

Consider this gist/block.

Regarding the x/y positioning of the text, the magic is in this line (formatted for readability):

.attr("transform", function(d) {
  return "translate(" + 
    ( (radius - 12) * Math.sin( ((d.endAngle - d.startAngle) / 2) + d.startAngle ) ) +
    ", " +
    ( -1 * (radius - 12) * Math.cos( ((d.endAngle - d.startAngle) / 2) + d.startAngle ) ) +
  ")";
 })

((d.endAngle - d.startAngle) / 2) + d.startAngle gives us our angle (theta) in radians.
(radius - 12) is the arbitrary radius I chose for the position of the text.
-1 * the y axis is inverted (see below).

The trig functions used are: cos = adjacent / hypotenuse and sin = opposite / hypotenuse. But there are a couple things we need to consider to make these work with our labels.

0 angle is at 12 o'clock.
The angle still increases in a clockwise direction.
The y axis is inverted from the standard cartesian coordinate system. Positive y is in the direction of 6 o'clock - down.
Positive x is still in the direction of 3 o'clock - right.

That messes things up quite a bit and basically has the effect of swapping sin and cos. Our trig functions then become: sin = adjacent / hypotenuse and cos = opposite / hypotenuse.

Substituting variable names we have sin(radians) = x / r and cos(radians) = y / r. After some algebraic manipulation we can get both functions in terms of x and y respectively r * sin(radians) = x and r * cos(radians) = y. From there, just plug those into the transform/translate attribute.

That'll put the labels in the right location, to make them look fancy, you need some styling logic like this:

.style("text-anchor", function(d) {
    var rads = ((d.endAngle - d.startAngle) / 2) + d.startAngle;
    if ( (rads > 7 * Math.PI / 4 && rads < Math.PI / 4) || (rads > 3 * Math.PI / 4 && rads < 5 * Math.PI / 4) ) {
      return "middle";
    } else if (rads >= Math.PI / 4 && rads <= 3 * Math.PI / 4) {
      return "start";
    } else if (rads >= 5 * Math.PI / 4 && rads <= 7 * Math.PI / 4) {
      return "end";
    } else {
      return "middle";
    }
  })

This will make the labels from 10:30 o'clock to 1:30 o'clock and from 4:30 o'clock to 7:30 o'clock anchor in the middle (they are above and below), the labels from 1:30 o'clock to 4:30 o'clock anchor on the left (they are to the right), and the labels from 7:30 o'clock to 10:30 o'clock anchor on the right (they are to the left).

The same formulas can be used for any D3 radial graph, the only difference is how you determine the angle.

I hope this helps anyone stumbling across it!

Thanks!

I found a different way to solve this problem, but yours seems better :-)

I created a second arc with a bigger radius and used it to position my labels.

///// Arc Labels ///// 
// Calculate position 
var pos = d3.svg.arc().innerRadius(r + 20).outerRadius(r + 20); 

// Place Labels 
arcs.append("svg:text") 
       .attr("transform", function(d) { return "translate(" + 
    pos.centroid(d) + ")"; }) 
       .attr("dy", 5) 
       .attr("text-anchor", "middle") 
       .attr("fill", function(d, i) { return colorL(i); }) //Colorarray Labels
       .attr("display", function(d) { return d.value >= 2 ? null : "none"; })  
       .text(function(d, i) { return d.value.toFixed(0) + "%"});

回答4:

I don't know if this helps but I was able to create arcs where I place text, both, on the arc and just outside it. In one case, where I place magnitudes of the arc within the arcs, I rotate the text on the arc to match the angle of the arc. In the other, where I place the text outside of the arc, it is simply horizontal. The code is located at: http://bl.ocks.org/2295263

My Best,

yes baby, it's SOHCAHTOA

function coordinates_on_circle(hyp, angle){
  var radian= angle * Math.PI / 180 //trig uses radians
  return {
    x: Math.cos(radian) * hyp, //adj = cos(r) * hyp
    y: Math.sin(radian) * hyp //opp = sin(r) * hyp
  }
}
var radius=100
var angle=45
coordinates_on_circle(radius, angle)

The following CoffeeScript worked for me to get labels still inside the pie slices, but toward the outer edge:

attr 'transform', (d) ->
  radius = width / 2 # radius of whole pie chart
  d.innerRadius = radius * 0.5
  d.outerRadius = radius * 1.5
  'translate(' + arc.centroid(d) + ')'

This was the low-cost answer I was happy with. It pushes all the labels out horizontally (that's where I had the extra space):

g.append("text")
  .attr("transform", function(d) { 
      var pos = arc.centroid(d); 
      return "translate(" + (pos[0] + (.5 - (pos[0] < 0)) * radius) + "," + (pos[1]*2) + ")"; 
  })
  .attr("dy", ".35em")
  .style("text-anchor", function(d) { 
      return arc.centroid(d)[0] > 0 ? "start" : "end";
   })
  .text(function(d) { return d.label; });

I achieved the same by drawing percentage as labels outside the pie chart graph, here is the code http://bl.ocks.org/farazshuja/e2cb52828c080ba85da5458e2304a61f

g.append("text")
        .attr("transform", function(d) {
        var _d = arc.centroid(d);
        _d[0] *= 2.2;   //multiply by a constant factor
        _d[1] *= 2.2;   //multiply by a constant factor
        return "translate(" + _d + ")";
      })
      .attr("dy", ".50em")
      .style("text-anchor", "middle")
      .text(function(d) {
        if(d.data.percentage < 8) {
          return '';
        }
        return d.data.percentage + '%';
      });
