Asset allocation pie chart.

The following graph packages are candidates: GUPPI, plotutils, - gnumeric/graph code. The gnumeric/graphcode is already - bonobo-ified.

- -

If gnumeric and gnucash are to use a common graph - solution, the following are gnumeric requirements: -- - interactive plot editing -- each segment attributes totally - settable/controllable -- drag/move callbacks when segments - are click-draged.

Graphs should be printable to printer.

Provide support for graphs, charts, etc., such as: + Asset allocation pie chart, portfolio value vs. cost, + ROI. Graphs should be printable to printer. + Graph generation should be fully integrated with reporting, + both for data collection via queries, and for displayed + output. +
