# plotOptions.pie.dataLabels.crookDistance

Works only if `connectorShape` is `'crookedLine'`. It defines how far from the vertical plot edge the coonnector path should be crooked. With the default, `undefined`, the crook is placed so that the horizontal line from the label intersects with the radial line extending through the center of the pie slice.
