PieTool selects the wrong pie in Version 7

I'm trying to use the PieTool to select the pie where the mouse is over, but it selects the wrong pie when the pie is 3D and the mouse is near the border.

To try this, just run Tee7New, in the PieTool Demo. In Tee6New, this works ok.

Hi Bruno,

yes, you're correct. Seems like we've modified something that has produced this new bug. I've added it on our defect list to be reviewed for the next maintenance release.

I've tracked the problem to TeeCanvas.Calculate2DPosition. It is miscalculating the projection of the point. This is due to invalid parameters calculated in TTeeCanvas3D.CalcTrigValues.

In V6 there is a conditional compile NEWXYZ, that was applied to V7 and gives this miscalculation. I think the solution is return to the calculation of V6, removing NEWXYZ
