General quest. to a Pie chart

[Frank]

Hi,

I am working with your pie chart, and have some question:

1) How can get the pie to fill out the whole chart area?

2) Is it possible to make the Text more visible, maybe with semi transparent background?

3) Is it possible to move the text further away, make the lines longer, from the pie?

I have attached my pie, the background is transparent but normally shown with a white background.

TIA, Frank

Hi Frank,

Thank you for your interest in Syncfusion Products.

How can get the pie to fill out the whole chart area?

If your intention is to make the pie chart to take up the entire area, it can be achieved by using the ElementsSpacing property.

[C#]

this.ChartWebControl3.ElementsSpacing = 0;
this.ChartWebControl3.ChartArea.ChartAreaMargins.Bottom=0;
this.ChartWebControl3.ChartArea.ChartAreaMargins.Top = 0;

Please refer the sample in the below link which illustrates the above:

Please try this and let me know if this helps.

Thanks,
Melba
