Make Legend Visible in Pie Chart

Hi,
I'm having trouble getting the legend for my pie chart to show up permanently in my dashboard. Any ideas why this isn't happening?

Here's my code:

<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8'?>
<view template="dashboard.html">
  <label>InsureCom Daily</label>
  <module name="AccountBar" layoutPanel="appHeader"/>
  <module name="AppBar" layoutPanel="navigationHeader"/>
  <module name="Message" layoutPanel="messaging">
    <param name="filter">*</param>
    <param name="clearOnJobDispatch">False</param>
    <param name="maxSize">1</param>
  </module>

  <module name="HiddenSavedSearch" layoutPanel="panel_row1_col1" group="InsureCom Total Transactions" autoRun="True">
    <param name="savedSearch">InsureCom Daily Transactions</param>
    <param name="useHistory">True</param>
    <module name="SingleValue">
      <module name="JobProgressIndicator"/>
    </module>
  </module>

  <module name="HiddenSavedSearch" layoutPanel="panel_row2_col1" group="InsureCom Internal Status" autoRun="True">
    <param name="savedSearch">InsureCom Daily Internal Status</param>
    <param name="useHistory">False</param>
    <module name="HiddenChartFormatter">
      <param name="chart">pie</param>
      <param name="charting.legend.masterLegend"/>
      <param name="charting.legend.placement">right</param>
      <param name="charting.chart.showPercent">true</param>
      <param name="charting.seriesColors">[0x00FF00,0xFF0000]</param>
      <module name="FlashChart">
        <param name="width">100%</param>
        <param name="height">300px</param>
      </module>
      <module name="JobProgressIndicator"/>
    </module>
  </module>
</view>

Thanks.

The trick is to concatenate the data series values into your pie slice label, as follows:

Example 1 for count

| stats count by op_eTOM
| eval op_eTOM_Slice=op_eTOM+ ": " + count + " Transactions"
| fields op_eTOM_Slice, count

Example 2 for total durations

| stats sum(Duration) as sum_Duration_Seconds by op_eTOM
| eval total_Minutes=round(sum_Duration_Seconds/60)
| eval op_eTOM_Slice=op_eTOM+ ": " + total_Minutes + " Minutes"
| fields op_eTOM_Slice, sum_Duration_Seconds
