The code below creates a 24 slice pie chart. How do I:

  1. Add text labels to each slice a la "Wheel of Fortune".
  2. Rotate the pie chart? I want it to spin like "Wheel of Fortune".

    private void DrawPieChart()
    {
        Graphics g = this.CreateGraphics();
        g.Clear(this.BackColor);
        Rectangle rect = new Rectangle(0, 0, 300, 300);
        float angle = 0;
        Random random = new Random();
        int sectors = 24;
        int sweep = 360 / sectors;
    
    
    
     for(int i=0; i<24;i++)
    {
        Color clr = Color.FromArgb(random.Next(0, 255),random.Next(0, 255), random.Next(0, 255));
        g.FillPie(new SolidBrush(clr), rect, angle, sweep);
        angle += sweep;
    }
    g.Dispose();
    
    }
