Bug Description

With 5.8, in Statistics Report donut view on category - if the category in question has only one sub-category with data then you cannot click into the donut to see the subcategory breakdown. This can happen if you limit the date range to say one month - which we do when reviewing our finances each month.

The problem is you don't know what that sub-cat is - hovering over the donut tells you just the category name, and not being able to click into the donut to see the one-colour donut and sub-cat involved you have to search the transactions to find it out.

Either solution, or some other ingenious one, is ok with me -
   1. being able to see the single sub-cat when you hover over the category donut (when there's only one sub-cat).

     -- or --

   2. being taken into a one sub-cat donut.

Yes with the graph, but is it easy to view the list or detail to know.

YNAB which is the sole I know to have a drill-down pie-chart, enables drill for a single subcat.
This is undesirable, as you then faulty think there is more than 1 subcat (with the hand cursor) and you see the same amount.

I will review other and still think about it.

I can see you can flip the "donut" back to "list", didn't think about that way - just defaulted to opening transactions list and filtering in there to find it (messy way I know). Silly me!

Flipping the view to "list" does then need one to locate the category to be able to see the sub-cat name that's the single entry. A little more than 1-click to see followed by 1 to get back to donut.

It would be nice to quickly see the sub-cat maybe in the "bubble" that pops up with the catname & $s in it when you hover over the category's colour in the donut - no searching required thru a "list". Then you'd know you can't 'click' to get the subcats donut with it's one entry.
That, or just get taken in to a 1-subcat donut.
