Chart Type Pie

On the first page of the Chart Wizard you can choose a chart type.

Pie

A pie chart shows values as circular sectors of the total circle. The length of the arc, or the area of each sector, is proportional to its value.

Pie: This subtype shows sectors as colored areas of the total pie, for one data column only. In the created chart, you can click and drag any sector to separate that sector from the remaining pie or to join it back.

Exploded pie: This subtype shows the sectors already separated from each other. In the created chart, you can click and drag any sector to move it along a radial from the pie's center.

Donut: This subtype can show multiple data columns. Each data column is shown as one donut shape with a hole inside, where the next data column can be shown. In the created chart, you can click and drag an outer sector to move it along a radial from the donut's center.

Exploded donut: This subtype shows the outer sectors already separated from the remaining donut. In the created chart, you can click and drag an outer sector to move it along a radial from the donut's center.

Bar-of-pie: This subtype shows a pie chart on the left, with the last three entries in the data column aggregated as a "composite" sector. The composite sector is broken down in a bar chart on the right.

Pie-of-pie: This subtype shows a pie chart on the left, with the last three entries in the data column aggregated as a "composite" sector. The composite sector is displayed on the right as another pie chart.
