Thin wedges missing from pie graph

Community matplotlib-users
1

If there are one or more narrow wedges on a pie graph, narrow enough that the percentage values overlap and are hard to read, there seems to be a knife-thin missing wedge from the pie, including a break in the circumference.

Is this configurable, even if it means that the border completely covers the colored interior of ultra-thin wedges?

Can you provide a standalone script that reproduces this error?

Now that I'm seeing your image, it's jogged my memory that this bug has already been fixed on both our 0.91.x and 0.98.x branches. What version are you using?

Cheers,
Mike

I emerged 0.91.2 through my distribution’s packaging system. Do I need to compile the newest version from source or something like that?

Hmmm... The puzzling thing is that 0.91.2 works for me with the example you provided. Can you try clearing out the installation directory (usually /usr/lib/python2.5/site-packages/matplotlib/) and trying again?

Cheers,
Mike

I deleted the matplotlib directory (there was one at the path you provided) and reinstalled 0.91.2; the behavior was identical.
