You can use the area shape element and an image map generator to get coordinates. So here is the prototype; I will only show a few images so you can see that each pie slice references a different URL (seen at the bottom left of each image):
There is a website that can help you identify the coordinates of the pie slices in your chart:
https://www.image-map.net/
You upload your image and then create the areas. I used poly and clicked several points on the arc to best fit the poly area to the pie slice. I was not sure if I was on the right track at first so I don't have an image to show all eight pie slices, but I went back and made an image of one slice so you get the idea:
Then you can apply all of your coordinates to the following formula in a rich text formula field (or a code page) changing out the "XXXX" for your realm and DBID and all of the URL's for the pages you want to navigate to:
I'm glad you asked this question Ruby. I planned to work on digital check sheets that would allow an operator to view an image of a complex part and click on a small section of it to navigate to relevant specifications in a check sheet. This will come in handy. I hope you are able to utilize this method.

This is very innovative. I want to get a sample up and running in a Formula RT.
The next leap would be to have dynamic image that did this. I suspect it is a huge leap in the Quick Base world.
