amcharts Overlay legend on a chart - amcharts

How can I overlay the legend on a column chart without?
Would I need to use absolute positioning? If so, could someone provide an example?
Please see the picture below.

https://www.amcharts.com/docs/v4/tutorials/chart-legend-in-an-external-container/
I managed this by placing the legend in another container, then setting an absolute property and overlaying the div.
var legendContainer = am4core.create("legenddiv", am4core.Container)
chart.legend.parent = legendContainer;

Opposite and horizontal property for labels in Pie Series

I was wondering if there is any way I can show labels Horizontally for PieSeries above Pie Graph, as by default it is shown below graph and vertically. I tried to find a way similar to Opposite property of AxisRendererX as given in OppositeProperty explanation, But I failed to show my labels in a Horizontal way above graph! An image of Pie Series that needs to be updated is attached for your reference.
amcharts uses the full area you provide for a chart. If you set the width of your chart to a small value, you have the result you showed. If you resize your chart like I did in the code pen below, the labels are shown horizontally.
To change the legend position you can use the legend.position attribute.
Available options are: "left", "right", "top", "bottom" (default), and "absolute".
https://www.amcharts.com/docs/v4/concepts/legend/#Positioning
In your case you can use the following code to move the legend to the top:
chart.legend = new am4charts.Legend();
chart.legend.position = 'top';
I created a code pen for your example.

Amcharts legend dynamic resizing

I want my legend to adjust itslef according to the amount of data that is coming in like highcharts . For example if I have only one legend I don't wanna legend to take the length as the div itself and I also have multiple pods .if there are a lot of legends I want it to have scrollbar instead now it's reducing the size of the chart itself.
Pls give your valuable inputs .
You can have the Legend rendered inside a defined Element referring to it using divId.
Then just make sure your legend element is setup to use scrollbars.
Please check the example here: https://codepen.io/team/amcharts/pen/dac1c66de18a50661c8195d4b792a30c

How to change the location of the pie chart in D3?

Now I am trying to build pie charts which can be placed anywhere on the canvas in D3.
However in D3, the pie chart is composed like "[g class="arc][path][/g]",
but neither of "g tag" or "path tag"'s location can be changed.
Is there any solution to change the location of the pie chart on the canvas.
Thank you so much in advance!
You can change the position of an svg object (like a group) element with translate.
For example:
<g transform="translate(20,20)"></g>
Check a live example here: http://jsbin.com/zajij/1/
In d3 you can add an attr to add this transform
.attr("transform", "translate(20,20)");
Hope this helps!

Tooltips getting cutoff in pie charts in highcharts

I have a pie chart which is being generated from a json string. The pie is getting created correctly but what is happening is the tooltip is getting cutoff when the text to be displayed in the tooltip is large. I have tried increasing the width and height of the svg area. But the charts are generated dynamically so i have no way of setting the chart widht and height dynamically depending on the content.
One can adjust the margins margin:[0,100,0,100], to shrink the pie chart so that the tooltips/labels will appear. This has been set to automatically scale the chart in Highcharts 3.0.

Increase Height and width of your chart div or put your code in jsfiddle if possible, so that we can get more idea
This example could be relevant to your situation- http://jsfiddle.net/4ac8b/1/. When you re-size the result pane you will notice the chart size changes accordingly.
You will need to set the size of your container so that the chart is drawn in that area itself. http://jsfiddle.net/4ac8b/. Even when you re-size the result pane the chart size wont change.
Change the diameter of your pie chart to allow additional information
