Pie
Characteristics
For each series of data, it is necessary to define
the characteristics of that Pie,
X position, Y position, Pie Size, Number of Segments and
Segment Seperation.
For
example if we have 3 series of the data,
File

Segment Labels
The
pie segment labels are supplied by the pieMlabelN parameter,
where M & N represent integer numbers starting with
1. For example if you have 3 series each four 4 pieces of
data (i.e. 4 segments in each pie) then 4 labels should
