Type:

Function parameters:

pointInfo:

Information on the series point.

Return Value:

Point Configuration

The point's configuration.

By default, all the points of a pie are displayed identically. But you can specify different appearance for certain points using the customizePoint field. Assign a function to this field. This function should return an object with options that should be changed for a certain point. The following pie options can be changed.

When implementing a callback function for this option, use the argument or value of a point. They can be accessed using the following fields of the function's parameter.

Field	Description
argument	The argument of the series point.
value	The value of the series point.
tag	The tag of the series point.
index	The index of the series point in the points array.

Cannot be used in themes.

If you use DevExtreme ASP.NET MVC Controls, refer to the Bind Controls to Data article.

The PieChart works with collections of objects.

Depending on your data source, bind the PieChart to data as follows.

Data Array
Assign the array to the dataSource option. View Demo
Read-Only Data in JSON Format
Set the dataSource option to the URL of a JSON file or service that returns JSON data. View Demo
OData
Implement an ODataStore.

Web API, PHP, MongoDB
Use one of the following extensions to enable the server to process data according to the protocol DevExtreme widgets use:

Then, use the createStore method to configure access to the server on the client as shown below. This method is part of DevExtreme.AspNet.Data.

jQuery

JavaScript

$(function() {
    let serviceUrl = "https://url/to/my/service";
    $("#pieChartContainer").dxPieChart({

                dataSource={store} />
        );
    }
}
export default App;

Any other data source
Implement a CustomStore.

Regardless of the data source on the input, the PieChart always wraps it in the DataSource object. This object allows you to sort, filter, group, and perform other data shaping operations. To get its instance, call the getDataSource() method.

After providing data, bind series to it.

NOTE

Please review the following notes about data binding:

If you wrap the store into the DataSource object explicitly, set the paginate option to false to prevent data from partitioning.
Data field names should not contain the following characters: ., ,, :, [, and ].
DataSource and stores provide methods to process and update data. However, the methods do not allow you to perform particular tasks (for example, replace the entire dataset, reconfigure data access at runtime). For such tasks, create a new array, store, or DataSource and assign it to the dataSource option as shown in the articles about changing options in jQuery, Angular, React, and Vue.

diameter

Specifies the diameter of the pie.

Type:

Default Value: undefined

This option accepts a number that identifies the ratio between the pie's diameter and the widget's width or height (depending on which of them is less). For example, assume that the widget's size is 300x500 pixels and the diameter option is set to 0.5. Then, the resulting diameter of the pie will be:

0.5 * min(300,500) = 0.5 * 300 = 150 pixels

disabled

Specifies whether the widget responds to user interaction.

Type:

Default Value: false

Cannot be used in themes.

elementAttr

Specifies the attributes to be attached to the widget's root element.

Type:

Default Value: {}

jQuery

$(function(){
    $("#pieChartContainer").dxPieChart({
        // ...
        elementAttr: {
            id: "elementId",

            </PieChart>
        );
    }

export default App;

export

Configures the exporting and printing features.

Type:

These features allow a user to export your widget into a document or print it. When exporting is enabled, the "Exporting/Printing" button appears in the widget. A click on it invokes a drop-down menu that lists exporting and printing commands. The following formats are supported for exporting into: PNG, PDF, JPEG, SVG and GIF.

NOTE

Safari on Mac OS does not implement an API for saving files. Therefore, exporting in these browsers requires setting up a server-side proxy. For details, refer to the proxyUrl option description.

innerRadius

Specifies the fraction of the inner radius relative to the total radius in the series of the 'doughnut' type. The value should be between 0 and 1.

Type:

Default Value: 0.5

This member is exposed by the following entities:

DoughnutSeries

Use this option to change the amount of space occupied by the inner area of the doughnut-type pie chart.

legend

Specifies PieChart legend options.

Type:

The PieChart widget can include a legend. It helps you distinguish and identify the points of the displayed series. Each point is presented by an item on the legend. An item marker identifies the point's (slice's) color. An item label displays a value corresponding to the point. Use the legend property to set up PieChart legend options to the required values. To learn more about the legend and its options, refer to the Legend topic.

loadingIndicator

Configures the loading indicator.

Type:

When the widget is bound to a remote data source, it can display a loading indicator while data is loading.

DevExtreme Charts - Loading indicator

To enable the automatic loading indicator, set the enabled option to true.

If you want to change the loading indicator's visibility, use the show option or the showLoadingIndicator() and hideLoadingIndicator() methods.

margin

Generates space around the widget.

Type:

WidgetMargin DevExtreme ChartJS

minDiameter

Specifies the minimum diameter of the pie.

Type:

Default Value: 0.5

This option specifies the minimum ratio between the pie's diameter and the widget's width or height (depending on which of them is less). For example, assume that the widget's size is 300x500 pixels and the minDiameter option is 0.7. Then, the diameter of the pie will never be less than:

0.7 * min(300,500) = 0.7 * 300 = 210 pixels

palette

Sets the palette to be used to colorize series and their elements.

Type:

Array<String>

|

Default Value: 'Material'

This option accepts either the name of a predefined palette or an array of colors. The array can include the following colors:

Hexadecimal colors
RGB colors
RGBA colors
Predefined/cross-browser color names
Predefined SVG colors

Use the VizPalette enum to specify this option when the widget is used as an ASP.NET MVC 5 Control or a DevExtreme-Based ASP.NET Core Control. This enum accepts the following values: Default, SoftPastel, HarmonyLight, Pastel, Bright, Soft, Ocean, Vintage, Violet, Carmine, DarkMoon, SoftBlue, DarkViolet, and GreenMist.

paletteExtensionMode

Specifies what to do with colors in the palette when their number is less than the number of series (in the Chart widget) or points in a series (in the PieChart widget).

Type:

Default Value: 'blend'

Accepted Values: 'alternate' | 'blend' | 'extrapolate'

The following variants are available:

"blend"
Create a blend of two neighboring colors and insert it between these colors in the palette.
"alternate"
Repeat the full set of palette colors, alternating their normal, lightened, and darkened shades in that order.
"extrapolate"
Repeat the full set of palette colors, changing their shade gradually from dark to light.

Use the VizPaletteExtensionMode enum to specify this option when the widget is used as an ASP.NET MVC 5 Control or a DevExtreme-Based ASP.NET Core Control. This enum accepts the following values: Blend, Alternate, and Extrapolate.

pathModified

Notifies the widget that it is embedded into an HTML page that uses a tag modifying the path.

Type:

Default Value: false

Cannot be used in themes.

If you place the widget on a page that uses a tag modifying the path (<base>, <iframe>, etc.), some of the widget elements may get mixed up or disappear. To solve this problem, set the pathModified option to true.

pointSelectionMode

Specifies whether a single point or multiple points can be selected in the chart.

Type:

Default Value: 'single'

Accepted Values: 'multiple' | 'single'

To set the points to highlight along with the selected point, set the series.selectionMode option.

To learn how to select a point, refer to the Selection Handling topic.

Use the ChartElementSelectionMode enum to specify this option when the widget is used as an ASP.NET MVC 5 Control or a DevExtreme-Based ASP.NET Core Control. This enum accepts the following values: Single and Multiple.

redrawOnResize

Specifies whether to redraw the widget when the size of the parent browser window changes or a mobile device rotates.

Type:

Default Value: true

Cannot be used in themes.

When this option is set to true, the widget will be redrawn automatically in case the size of its parent window changes.

NOTE

To redraw the widget after the size of its container has changed, call the render() method of the widget's instance.

resolveLabelOverlapping

Specifies how a chart must behave when point labels overlap.

Type:

Default Value: 'none'

Accepted Values: 'hide' | 'none' | 'shift'

Series point labels display series point values. If the series in your pie chart contains a large number of points, point labels may overlap. In this case, specify how the chart must resolve overlapping using the resolveLabelOverlapping option. To hide certain labels, set this option to 'hide'. Labels to be hidden will be determined automatically. To resolve overlapping by shifting labels from their positions, set the resolveLabelOverlapping option to 'shift'. In this case, it is recommended that you display label connectors so that pie segments are connected with their labels. If there is not enough space for all labels after they are shifted, labels with the smallest values will be hidden.

NOTE

If the position option is set to "inside", the "shift" mode in label overlapping is not available.

Use the PieChartResolveLabelOverlapping enum to specify this option when the widget is used as an ASP.NET MVC 5 Control or a DevExtreme-Based ASP.NET Core Control. This enum accepts the following values: None, Hide, and Shift.

rtlEnabled

Switches the widget to a right-to-left representation.

Type:

Default Value: false

Cannot be used in themes.

When this option is set to true, the widget text flows from right to left, and the layout of elements is reversed. To switch the entire application/site to the right-to-left representation, assign true to the rtlEnabled field of the object passed to the DevExpress.config(config) method.

JavaScript

DevExpress.config({
    rtlEnabled: true
});

NOTE

In a right-to-left representation, SVG elements have the direction attribute with the rtl value. This might cause problems when rendering left-to-right texts. Use this option if you have only right-to-left texts.

segmentsDirection

Specifies the direction that the pie chart segments will occupy.

Type:

Default Value: 'clockwise'

Accepted Values: 'anticlockwise' | 'clockwise'

Use the PieChartSegmentsDirection enum to specify this option when the widget is used as an ASP.NET MVC 5 Control or a DevExtreme-Based ASP.NET Core Control. This enum accepts the following values: Clockwise and AntiClockwise.

series

Specifies options for the series of the PieChart widget.

Type:

Array<Series Configuration>

|

Default Value: undefined

Cannot be used in themes.

A series represents a group of related data points. To configure a series, assign an object to the series option. If PieChart must contain several series, assign an array of such objects to the same option. Refer to the Series Overview topic to learn the basics of what a series is, what it does, and how it helps.

The definitive characteristic of a series is its type. The PieChart widget provides two series types - Pie and Doughnut.

When you have a multi-series pie, settings that are common for all series can be specified all together. Use the commonSeriesSettings object to do this.

seriesTemplate

Defines options for the series template.

Type:

Default Value: undefined

Cannot be used in themes.

In most cases, you can organize the array that is assigned to the chart's dataSource option in the following way.

[
    {arg: arg1Value, series1Value: val11, series2Value: val12, ...}
    {arg: arg2Value, series1Value: val21, series2Value: val22, ...}
    ...
    {arg: argNValue, series1Value: valN1, series2Value: valN2, ...}
]

Each object that is included in the array represents an argument value and the values of all series for this argument.

However, there are some scenarios in which you do not know exactly how many series will be added. In these cases, you will not be able to define the data source in the manner detailed above. Instead, define it in the following way.

[
    {seriesName: series1, arg: arg11Value, val: value11 }
    {seriesName: series1, arg: arg12Value, val: value12 }
    ...
    {seriesName: seriesM, arg: argM1Value, val: valueM1 }
    {seriesName: seriesM, arg: argM2Value, val: valueM2 }
    ...
]

If you define a data source in this manner, set the argument and value fields using the argumentField and valueField properties of the commonSeriesSettings configuration object (for all series at once). Then, define a template for the series using the seriesTemplate configuration object. Within this object, set the data source field that specifies the series name to the nameField option.

If you need to specify individual values for options of a particular series, assign a callback function to the customizeSeries option of the seriesTemplate object.

size

Specifies the widget's size in pixels.

Type:

Default Value: undefined

The widget occupies its container's entire area by default. Use the size object to specify the widget's size if it should be different from that of its container. Assign 0 to size object's height and width options to hide the widget.

index.js

$(function() {
    $("#pieChartContainer").dxPieChart({
        // ...
        size: {
            height: 300,

Alternatively, you can style the widget's container using CSS:

jQuery

index.js

styles.css

$(function() {
    $("#pieChart").dxPieChart({
        // ...
    });
});

#pieChart {
    width: 85%;
    height: 70%;
}

Angular

app.component.html

app.styles.css

<dx-pie-chart ...
    id="pieChart">
</dx-pie-chart>

#pieChart {
    width: 85%;
    height: 70%;
}

Vue

App.vue

<template>
    <DxPieChart ...
        id="pieChart">

</template>

<script>
import DxPieChart from 'devextreme-vue/pie-chart';

export default {
    components: {
        DxPieChart
    },
    // ...
}
</script>

<style>
#pieChart {
    width: 85%;
    height: 70%;
}
</style>

React

App.js

import React from 'react';

import PieChart from 'devextreme-react/pie-chart';

class App extends React.Component {
    render() {
        return (
            <PieChart ...
                id="pieChart">
            </PieChart>
        );
    }
}
export default App;

#pieChart {
    width: 85%;
    height: 70%;
}

sizeGroup

Allows you to display several adjoining pies in the same size.

Type:

Default Value: undefined

Besides the pie itself, the PieChart widget comprises other diverse elements that affect the size of the pie. Therefore, when you display several PieChart widgets side by side, their pies may differ in size. To eliminate these differences, collect all the PieChart widgets in a single size group by setting their sizeGroup option to identical values. The widgets should have identical layouts, that is, the same container's size, position of the title and legend, etc. Note also that a single page can contain many size groups, but a widget can be a member of only one of them.

startAngle

Specifies the angle in arc degrees from which the first segment of a pie chart should start.

Type:

Default Value: 0

theme

Sets the name of the theme the widget uses.

Type:

Default Value: 'generic.light'

A theme is a widget configuration that gives the widget a distinctive appearance. Use can use one of the predefined themes or create a custom one. Changing the option values in the widget's configuration object overrides the theme's corresponding values.

Use the VizTheme enum to specify this option when the widget is used as an ASP.NET MVC 5 Control or a DevExtreme-Based ASP.NET Core Control. This enum accepts the following values: GenericLight, GenericDark, GenericContrast, GenericCarmine, GenericDarkMoon, GenericSoftBlue, GenericDarkViolet, GenericGreenMist, MaterialBlueLight, MaterialLimeLight, MaterialOrangeLight, MaterialPurpleLight, MaterialTealLight.

title

Configures the widget's title.

Type:

|

The widget's title is a short text that usually indicates what is visualized. If you need to specify the title's text only, assign it directly to the title option. Otherwise, set this option to an object with the text and other fields specified.

The title can be accompanied by a subtitle elaborating on the visualized subject using the title.subtitle object.

Chart Demo

tooltip

Configures tooltips.

Type:

A tooltip is a miniature rectangle displaying values of a series point. A tooltip appears when the end-user hovers the cursor over a series point. You can enable/disable tooltips, change their appearance and format their text using fields of the tooltip configuration object.

type

Specifies the type of the pie chart series.

Type:
