Use case

Proposal

[wz-wenchao]

by the way, the code show one label :

dataLabelSettings: DataLabelSettings(
    isVisible: true,
    labelPosition: ChartDataLabelPosition.outside,
    labelIntersectAction: LabelIntersectAction.none,
    builder: (data, point, series, pointIndex, seriesIndex) {
         if (selectIndex != pointIndex) {
               return const SizedBox();
          }
          return Column();
    },
),

is this right ?

Hi @wz-wenchao,

Thank you for your update, and we're glad to see you're exploring solutions on your own. You're right that using the builder property in DataLabelSettings allows you to control the rendering of the label widget. However, it's important to note that this approach only affects the label content, not the connector line. Even if you return an empty widget like SizedBox(), the connector line may still be drawn if isVisible is set to true.

To fully hide both the label and the connector line, we recommend using the onDataLabelRender callback instead. This gives you complete control over both the label text and the connector line style. This callback allows you to conditionally modify the data labels based on the pointIndex.

Code snippet:

child: SfCircularChart(
  onDataLabelRender: (DataLabelRenderArgs args) {
    if (args.pointIndex == 1) {
      args.text = '${args.dataPoints![args.pointIndex].x}: ${args.dataPoints![args.pointIndex].y}%';             
    } else {
      args.text = '';
    }
  },
