Pie charts

Pie charts are good for showing the relationships between a group of figures in proportion to the total.

Several different types of chart are available from the Pie chart dialogue box.

  1. Click on the type of pie chart labels you want.
  2. Click on the segment layout you want, and set the distance for exploded segments if required.
  3. Click any options you require for custom starting points or direction.
  4. Click OK. Your pie chart will be generated and placed in the worksheet.

Once you have created the chart you can customise various aspects of it (see Customising charts).
