Description Randall Theobald CLA 2009-08-12 12:35:19 EDT 
Sometimes when looking at the overview panel for certain dumps (in my case always IBM system dumps), the pie chart mouse hover doesn't really work. That is, hover over one of the smaller slices sometimes doesn't change the text below to show the instance information for that slice.

Can we make the labels (eg. 2.2 MB) hoverable and clickable? (this would be an enhancement request, I guess)

From a brief look at BIRT I can't see a way to do this.

As the problem of small slices doesn't seem to occur very often, I'm going to change this to an enhancement

Sometimes the inspector view doesn't follow the mouse movement over the pie chart.
E.g. move from a pie segment into the remainder section and then back. The inspector view remains blank as it was in the remainder section.

This seems to be due to the "input" field not being cleared in the remainder section so on moving back to the pie segment it looks like it has not changed.

The fix is to clear this data.

The hover text should now work better - please confirm.

I think changing the labels to be hoverable is too much work.

I think this has been improved and I am closing the bug now. 
If you think there is more to do, reopen it.
Thanks for giving us feedback!
