5.10. Example - Pie Chart, flat with options

For this pie chart, we turned off shading with SetShading to get a flat pie instead of a 3-D look. We also overrode the default colors with our own array using SetDataColors, and used the same color names to make a legend with SetLegend. Finally, we moved the labels in towards the center with SetLabelScalePosition.
