Setting gui pie bound

Questions
#1

Hi All,
does anyone know how to set the gui pie node’s bound to the area which is actually drawn and not to the whole circle. The point is if i create a circular menu with several slices around, then a mouseover detection will fail to detect the proper slice.
thanks,
Ákos

This is not possible to do with the provided Defold APIs. I guess you could calculate it yourself somehow.

If you only wish to “pick” the circle, then this should work (untested):

if gui.pick_node(node, x, y) then
    local radius = box_size/2
    local diff = gui.get_position(node) - circle_center
    if vmath.length_sqr(diff) < radius then
        -- calculate the angle of diff, to find the menu item
    end
end
