Show category in pie chart

[Joseph Martinez]

I am trying to make my pie chart show the categories (Cats, Dogs, etc. in my below code) instead of the numerical data, where the DataMarkers would be.  I can see the categories if I turn on the legend, but I prefer to see the categories in the pie itself, rather than in a separate legend

Here is the code I'm using:

            SfChart chart = new SfChart(this);

            CategoryAxis primaryAxis = new CategoryAxis();

            primaryAxis.Title.Text = "Animals";

            chart.PrimaryAxis = primaryAxis;

            NumericalAxis secondaryAxis = new NumericalAxis();

            secondaryAxis.Title.Text = "Number";

            chart.SecondaryAxis = secondaryAxis;

            ObservableArrayList Ratings = new ObservableArrayList();

            Ratings.Add(new ChartDataPoint("Cats", 3));

            Ratings.Add(new ChartDataPoint("Dogs", 5));

            Ratings.Add(new ChartDataPoint("Birds", 50));

            Ratings.Add(new ChartDataPoint("Fish", 20));

            Ratings.Add(new ChartDataPoint("Other", 120));

            PieSeries pieSeries = new PieSeries()

            {

                DataSource = Ratings,

            };

            chart.Series.Add(pieSeries);

            chart.Legend.Visibility = Visibility.Visible;

Thanks!

Also, is it possible to show both the categories and the numerical data, with the categories on the outside of the pie, and the numerical values inside?
