DESCRIPTION

       The  pie  box style labeler object is used as a slice label placer for a pie object and is
       passed to the pie constructor via its -labeler option (see the pie class manual).

       The labels are arranged in 2 columns below the pie graphics. Each label text is placed  to
       the  right  of a rectangle, the background color of which matches its corresponding slice.
       The slice share value is placed to the right of the label text, separated by a  semicolon.
       Each  label is actually a canvasLabel object (see the canvasLabel class manual for further
       information).

       There is no need to delete a pieBoxLabeler object as it is automatically  handled  by  the
       pie class.

       stooop::new pieBoxLabeler canvas ?options?
              Creates a pieBoxLabeler object in the specified Tk canvas. The pieBoxLabeler object
              identifier is returned (referred to as pieBoxLabelerObject in this document).

       switched::configure pieBoxLabelerObject ?options?
              Configures a pieBoxLabeler object or returns all the  options  with  their  current
              values if no options are passed as parameters.

       switched::cget pieBoxLabelerObject option
              Returns an option value for the specified pieBoxLabeler object.

OPTIONS

       -font value
              Specifies a font for the slice labels. If not specified, the default font is system
              dependent.

       -justify value
              Specifies how to justify labels within their own  column.  Must  be  one  of  left,
              center  or  right.  Defaults  to  left. For example, if justification is right, all
              column labels right edges are aligned.

       -offset value
              Specifies the distance between the pie graphics and the closest slice  label.  This
              value  may  be  specified  in  any of the forms described in the canvas COORDINATES
              manual section.
