XAML

<sunburst:SfSunburstChart ItemsSource="{Binding Data}"               ValueMemberPath="EmployeesCount" 
                SegmentCreated="chart_SegmentCreated">
          
            <sunburst:SfSunburstChart.Levels>
                <sunburst:SunburstHierarchicalLevel GroupMemberPath="Country"/>
                <sunburst:SunburstHierarchicalLevel GroupMemberPath="JobDescription"/>
                <sunburst:SunburstHierarchicalLevel GroupMemberPath="JobGroup"/>
                <sunburst:SunburstHierarchicalLevel GroupMemberPath="JobRole"/>
            </sunburst:SfSunburstChart.Levels>
           
        </sunburst:SfSunburstChart>

C#

private void chart_SegmentCreated(object sender, SunburstSegmentCreatedEventArgs e)

{

                byte r = 180, g = 0, b = 96;
                byte r1 = 255, g1 = 153, b1 = 0;
                byte r2 = 102, g2 = 153, b2 = 0;
                byte r3 = 102, g3 = 204, b3 = 255;
                 if (e.Segment.CurrentLevel == 0)
                    e.Segment.Interior = new SolidColorBrush(Color.FromRgb(r3,g3,b3));

                else if (e.Segment.CurrentLevel == 1)
                    e.Segment.Interior = new SolidColorBrush(Color.FromRgb(r1, g1, b1));

                else if (e.Segment.CurrentLevel == 2)
                    e.Segment.Interior = new SolidColorBrush(Color.FromRgb(r, g, b));

                else if (e.Segment.CurrentLevel == 3)
                    e.Segment.Interior = new SolidColorBrush(Color.FromRgb(r2, g2, b2));

}

The following examples shows how to set the selected segment information.

XAML

                                  SelectionChanged="chart_SelectionChanged">

          <sunburst:SfSunburstChart.Behaviors>

        <sunburst:SunburstSelectionBehavior EnableSelection="True" 
                                            SelectionCursor="Hand"/>               
          </sunburst:SfSunburstChart.Behaviors>

<Popup x:Name="popup" Placement="MousePoint" Height="180" Width="180" >

                <Grid Margin="20,5,5,5">

                    <Grid.RowDefinitions>
                        <RowDefinition/>
                        <RowDefinition/>
                        <RowDefinition/>
                        <RowDefinition/>
                    </Grid.RowDefinitions>

                    <Grid.ColumnDefinitions>
                        <ColumnDefinition/>
                        <ColumnDefinition/>
                    </Grid.ColumnDefinitions>

                    <TextBlock Text="Category : " FontWeight="Bold" Grid.Row="0" Grid.Column="0"/>
                    <TextBlock x:Name="category"   FontWeight="Bold" Grid.Row="0" Grid.Column="1"/>
                    <TextBlock Text="Value : " FontWeight="Bold" Grid.Row="1" Grid.Column="0"/>
                    <TextBlock  x:Name="value" FontWeight="Bold" Grid.Row="1" Grid.Column="1"/>
                    <TextBlock Text="Level : " FontWeight="Bold" Grid.Row="2" Grid.Column="0"/>
                    <TextBlock x:Name="level" FontWeight="Bold" Grid.Row="2" Grid.Column="1"/>
                    <TextBlock Text="SliceIndex : " FontWeight="Bold" Grid.Row="3" Grid.Column="0"/>
                    <TextBlock x:Name="sliceIndex" FontWeight="Bold" Grid.Row="3" Grid.Column="1"/>

                </Grid>
                
            </Border>
            
        </Popup>

C#

private void chart_SelectionChanged(object sender, SunburstSelectionChangedEventArgs e)
{

      popup.IsOpen = true;
      category.Text = e.SelectedSegment.Category.ToString();
      value.Text = e.SelectedSegment.Value.ToString();
      level.Text = e.SelectedSegment.CurrentLevel.ToString();
      sliceIndex.Text = e.SelectedSegment.SliceIndex.ToString();
