Issue: a pie chart with right aligned legends tends to cut off text
although there is enough space.

Probably the layout algorithm is flawed. It seems to put an equal
amount of white space on both sides of the pie and then adds the
legend on the right which is then cut off if the text is rather long.

So far I suggested Chartle.net users to place the legend on the left.

Hope this helps,
Dieter

Always thought this to be a known issue since I saw it a few times
browsing the chartle.net gallery and got one or two emails concerning
the matter.

Cheers,
Dieter
