Hello again! I made this: jsbin.com/koqumajaxu/1/edit?output
I'm quite happy with it, apart from the fact that the only labels are mouseover. is that okay design-wise or is it better if I add labels all the time?
@Stacey From a UX perspective, the fixed sizing is bad. I couldn't see the labels on size screen I opened it up on. Secondly, the labels should be next to the segment it's for, showing them at the top doesn't help user understanding. Third, there's no title for the chart or anything telling me that it's interactive so I don't know to hover it initially (the text in the top left is not the best and mispositioned on my screen).
Fourth, a couple of the segments don't have children and are not clickable, but there's no feedback telling me that. Could be fixed by having cursor:pointer over the ones that work and the default cursor for the ones without children. Fifth, some of the colors are white - I can't see the segment. Sixth, when I click on a segment and see it's children I don't know how to get back intuitively, clicking the middle circle isn't obvious. Seventh, the animations are a bit slow when clicked
@ZachSaucier Thanks. The fixed sizing I will fix when I put the JS into a proper HTML wrapper. The Title will also be in the HTML wrapper although I'll have to think about how I'll indicate that it's interactive.
The rest are good points. Lots to think about
Thanks for your input

no problem! :)
welcome to the Ink Spot
Thanks. I'm a noob when it comes to designing things that interact with people
much more comfortable writing code that interacts with other code ;p
sure, I understand
14:10
Three new design bugs added to the site updates post xD
Also, I'd like to see this for our community. I always see the same people in the review queue, but I'm curious about the number of reviews each person has, especially in comparison to myself

@Stacey One more thing: If you leave the label at the top you should make it so the currently hovered segment is outlines, moved out, or something to distinguish that it's the current one

hi guys
please tell me
i wanna leave my country for 10years
I want to stay in another country
i wanna present my acc on this site as a Resume
Do you think they (Employer) will accept this
and this is not the only option ;)
lots of messages to say that
if this is the only thing you provide as a resume that's unacceptable - you shouldn't get any jobs. If you include your account here as part of your resume, it adds something useful
i say that, this is not only option :)
thanks zach, u r great friend :)
what country do you want to move to?
16:11
from Iran to Netherlands
spreek je Nederlands?
I hope it's better than your English, haha
Ik heb een aantal mogelijkheden
Ik werk eraan
My home language is Farsi, so I have a problem with the English language :(
door de manier, ik heb geen nederlands spreken
16:16
Maar nu dat je praat
Your English is good, just not great :)
@DevelopersPedia Google translate is nuttig ;)
yeee that's the point
Google translate is not useful for me, cuz Persian(Farsi) is complicate.
mmhm
it's far from perfect
but for phrases I've found it's often close to correct
Do you have any suggestions for my immigration?
I know close to nothing about immigration, especially immigration to the Netherlands
@RandyJones is from there though, he may be able to help
16:28
thanks ;)

Anyone have any idea how I can make the shadows on the right edge not end abruptly? puu.sh/hixcz/bcdf5c94f3.png
put it on a layer that's above the other
I mean visually.
I could extend it so it goes its full angled length like this puu.sh/hixqZ/6d3a432927.png but then it extends out of the central box area and calls for shadows on the outer area

@Keavon softly fade it out? Like this:
did the top one but left the other for comparison
23:17
I guess that works since it's pretty subtle so you don't notice it
thanks
