On click on a slice of the pie table should show only the value of that slice, not the values for all the slices

Hi,

I am trying to understand the structure of the javascript files used to create the pies and managed to actually add my own data.
What I would like to do next is when clicking on a slice is to show only the values for that slice, not for all the pie. Didn't really find a way to select only one slice.
Some tips would be much appreciated.

@corinat Apologies for the delay - I was on vacation. Currently, there's no out of the box way of doing this, but I don't think it would be too difficult to implement. One approach would be to extend L.PieChartMarker and override the _bindMouseEvents method with your own logic for handling interaction with each pie slice. _bindMouseEvents gets called for each slice of the pie chart marker. There you could handle mouse events like click. _bindMouseEvents currently handles the mouseover and mouseout events for displaying/removing the tooltip that shows the data value for each slice. The existing code should provide an example of how you might handle click events in a similar fashion. You may also be able to override bindPopup after extending L.PieChartMarker and figure out which slice was clicked - need to give that approach some more thought, but I think it might be doable.

@sfairgrieve, thank you for the advice. Do you think that customizing the file that holds the data that are shown onlick could also work? It is a bit of work, but might a be a solution too, although your advice has more sense.
