[Qgis-developer] Diagrams and labels

[Werner Macho]

Hi!

Sounds like there is room for improvement. Would be nice to have
everything working consistent.
Probably ask on the UX mailing list if there is some reason for this
behaviour. But I guess (and IMHO) it should all work the same way.

regards and thanks for looking into this
