Adding labels to pie charts in Trellis mode

Hi All

I have data in the below fomat

 Market=UK, Question=Where do you live, Answer=London 
 Market=USA, Question=Where do you live, Answer=New York 
 Market=UK, Question=What is you pet, Answer=dog 
 Market=USA, Question=What is you pet, Answer=cat

... and so on

And I have pie charts with Trellis to show data with the below query

|....
| stats count(Answer) as Count BY Question, Answer

So the pie charts has the Answers and when I hover over the pie it shows me the count and the percentage.
I want to show the percentage beside the Answer pie in brackets like the below image. (ignore the answers)

What should I add in the query to do that. I tried the below but it doesn't work. Seems using Trellis is making is difficult to add any labels

| stats count(Answer) as Count BY Question, Answer
| eval Answer = Answer."(".Count.")"
| table Question, Answer, Count

Any help is appreciated.

@nirmalya2006, You just need to take out the final table command. Try the following run any where example based on the sample data provided
