How to align legends vertically in AchartEngine for PieChart in android

I am using AchartEngine in my application. Is it possible to replace the legends.

Its horizontal 

oA oB oC oD

but i want to make it vertical

oA
oB
oC 
oD

Is it possible to change the position of the legends? Any help would be highly appreciated.

Then I took the spaces out and made a lower level hack. Inside AbstractChart.java, function drawLegend(), adjust this block:

            if (true) { // i > 0 && getExceed(currentWidth, renderer, right, width)) {
              currentX = left;
              currentY += renderer.getLegendTextSize();
              size += renderer.getLegendTextSize();
              currentWidth = currentX + extraSize;
            }

Someone could easily make a real feature out of that if they need various charts with various legend orientations.

I fixed this by a hack. (For the first time EVER in my /distinguished/ career!)

Witness:

xySeries.setTitle(legend + "                                                                                                                                   ");

The chart measures the spaces, thinks it has no horizontal room for them, and stacks the legends vertically.

I'm not using AchartEngine but creating something like that dynamically.enter image description here

Here the sample java code.

public class MainActivity extends Activity {

private LinearLayout linear;

@Override
protected void onCreate(Bundle savedInstanceState) {
    super.onCreate(savedInstanceState);
    setContentView(R.layout.activity_main);
    Random randomGenerator = new Random();
    for (int i = 0; i < 100; i++) {
        linear = (LinearLayout) findViewById(R.id.linear);
        LinearLayout lay = new LinearLayout(this);
        LinearLayout lay1 = new LinearLayout(this);
        TextView text = new TextView(this);
        text.setText("ONES");
        text.setTextColor(Color.parseColor("#000000"));
        text.setLayoutParams(new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(60, 40));

        TextView line = new TextView(this);
        line.setBackgroundColor(Color.parseColor("#00FF00"));
        line.setLayoutParams(new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(5, 90));

        TextView btn = new TextView(this);
        int randomInt = randomGenerator.nextInt(100);
        if (randomInt > 0 && randomInt <= 10) {
            btn.setBackgroundColor(Color.parseColor("#FF1919"));
        } else if (randomInt > 10 && randomInt <= 20) {
            btn.setBackgroundColor(Color.parseColor("#C41300"));
        } else if (randomInt > 20 && randomInt <= 30) {
            btn.setBackgroundColor(Color.parseColor("#AB1100"));
        } else if (randomInt > 30 && randomInt <= 40) {
            btn.setBackgroundColor(Color.parseColor("#7A0C00"));
        } else if (randomInt > 40 && randomInt <= 50) {
            btn.setBackgroundColor(Color.parseColor("#3E0600"));
        } else if (randomInt < 50 && randomInt <= 60) {
            btn.setBackgroundColor(Color.parseColor("#000000"));
        } else if (randomInt > 60 && randomInt <= 70) {
            btn.setBackgroundColor(Color.parseColor("#003E0F"));

        } else if (randomInt > 70 && randomInt <= 80) {
            btn.setBackgroundColor(Color.parseColor("#007A1D"));

        } else if (randomInt > 80 && randomInt <= 90) {
            btn.setBackgroundColor(Color.parseColor("#00C42F"));

        } else {
            btn.setBackgroundColor(Color.parseColor("#11FF4A"));

        }
        Log.d("TAG", "randnumber" + randomInt);

        btn.setLayoutParams(new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(randomInt, 40));

        btn.setId(i);
        btn.setOnClickListener(new OnClickListener() {

            @Override
            public void onClick(View arg0) {
                // TODO Auto-generated method stub
                Log.d("TAG", "get id" + arg0.getId());
            }
        });
        TextView text1 = new TextView(this);
        text1.setText("1");
        text1.setTextColor(Color.parseColor("#000000"));
        text1.setLayoutParams(new LinearLayout.LayoutParams(60, 40));
        lay1.setOrientation(LinearLayout.HORIZONTAL);
        lay1.setGravity(Gravity.CENTER_VERTICAL);
        // lay1.setPadding(0, 10, 0, 10);
        lay1.addView(text);
        lay1.addView(line);
        lay1.addView(btn);
        lay1.addView(text1);
        lay.setOrientation(LinearLayout.VERTICAL);
        lay.addView(lay1);
        linear.addView(lay);
    }
}

}

Here is the xml code.

 <LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
xmlns:tools="http://schemas.android.com/tools"
android:layout_width="match_parent"
android:layout_height="match_parent"
android:orientation="vertical"
tools:context=".MainActivity" >

<ScrollView
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="match_parent"
    android:scrollbars="vertical" >

    <LinearLayout
        android:id="@+id/linear"
        android:layout_width="match_parent"
        android:layout_height="wrap_content"
        android:orientation="vertical" >
    </LinearLayout>
</ScrollView>
