Hi Agustin!

You are very welcome!

Yes, you need to recreate a new PieChart. But this is easy and efficient. Try the following:

-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=-=
"We create an empty view. The view will contain the button and the pie."
view := RTView new.

"fillView is block that:
        (i) remove all the elements in the view (except the button);
        (ii) create a new pie with totally random data
        (iii) force a screen refresh with #signalUpdate"
fillView :=
[
        | b |
        view clean.
        b := RTPieBuilder new.

        "The RTPieBuilder will create the pie in the view"
        b view: view.
        b interaction popup.
        b objects: ((1 to: 10 atRandom) collect: [ :i | 30 atRandom ]).
        b slice: [ :aNumber | aNumber ].
        b normalizer distinctColor.
        b labelled.
        b build.
        view signalUpdate
].

"Add a button menu to the view"
view addMenu: 'Generate new data' callback: [ fillView value ].

"We want some data when opening the view"
fillView value.
view

Let us know if you have any further question

Cheers,
Alexandre
