JR42317: SIMPLE PIE CHART LABELS OVERLAP

Version 8.0 Refresh Pack 1 for the IBM Business Process Manager products
Version 7.5.1 Fix Pack 1 for the IBM Business Process Manager products

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• When using a Simple Pie Chart from the System Data Toolkit, text
  labels for the sectors of the chart can overlap. The labels
  are positioned over the sectors. When there are large number of
  sectors it is more likely that the labels will overlap. As a
  result, it is difficult to read the text labels.

  The fix for JR42317 changed the Simple Pie Chart from the
  System Data Toolkit by moving the text labels from over the
  sectors of the pie chart to the edges of the sectors.  As a
  result, labels for the sectors will no longer overlap.
  

Problem conclusion

• The fix for JR42317 is available on Fix Central for the
  7.5.1.0 level of IBM Business Process Manager.
  
  The JR42317 package available on Fix Central has two parts,
  one for the runtime (supporting Process Server and Process
  Center profiles) and one for Process Designer.  The file for
  the runtime has "BPM" in the name and the file for Process
  Designer has "BPMPD" in the name.  If the runtime fix is
  applied to an environment that supports Process Center, then
  the Process Designer fix (with "BPMPD" in the name) needs to
  be applied to every Process Designer that connects to that
  Process Center, otherwise there will be a version mismatch.
  
  Please note that JR42280 is a prerequisite fix for JR42317.
  
  
  Installation steps for 7.5.1.0:
  
  1.  Use Installation Manager to install JR42317 and the JR42280
  prerequisite for both Process Center / Process Server and
  Process Designer (using the separate "BPMPD" packages for
  Process Designer).
  2.  If the JR42280 prerequisite is applied concurrently to
  JR42317 via Installation Manager, then make sure to follow the
  additional application instructions included in the "Problem
  conclusion" section of the JR42280 document
  (http://www-304.ibm.com/support/docview.wss?uid=swg1JR42280).
