Hey, these are my first Steps on updating elements. I think understand the concepts of data(), enter() and exit(), but my code doesn't work as expected. My dom structure for each segement should look like this:

<g class="arc>
    <a xlink:href="#">
        <path d="..." fill="red" stroke="white" />
    </a>
</g> 

All works well on creating the initial structure, but not on updating the data. My path elements do still deal with the data from the previos data attachment and are not updated correctly. exit() seems to work fine. Here's what I'm doing:

// Apply data        
g = svg.selectAll(".arc")
    .data(this._pieData);

// Add new ones
g.enter().append("g")
    .attr("class", "arc")
    .on("mouseover", $.proxy(this._onSegmentMouseOver, null, this))
    .on("mouseout", $.proxy(this._onSegmentMouseOut, null, this))
    .append('a')
        .attr('xlink:href', function(d, index) { return '?score=' + index; })
        .append("path")
            .style("stroke", "white");    

// Update arcs and colors
g.selectAll("path")
    .attr("d", self._getArc)
    .style("fill", function(d, ka, index) { return self._getColor(index); });

// Remove overhead
g.exit().remove();

this._pieData is updated on each data change with a d3 pie layout function. After that this update method is called. Complete code can be found on my github repository: https://github.com/micha149/classroom/blob/feature/graphs/app/Resources/public/js/chart.breakdown.js#L109-L135

Any suggestions?

Does anyone have any suggestions for adding a responsive legend to this chart? I want to add one, but every time I try a different snippet of legend code the text is not a function of the data, instead just has 0,1,2,3,4,5 next to the colour boxes
