Here is a jsfiddle that shows the percentage at the tips.
key code: (you need to calculate the total number of all values โโcontaining the pie chart)
var data = [ {"label": "Water", "value": 63}, {"label": "Milk", "value": 17}, {"label": "Lemonade", "value": 27}, {"label": "Orange Juice", "value": 32} ]; var total = 0; data.forEach(function (d) { total = total + d.value; }); var tp = function(key, y, e, graph) { return '<p>' + (y * 100/total).toFixed(3) + '%</p>'; };
You also add this line when creating the NVD3 diagram, as you already know:
.tooltipContent(tp);
Final result:
