Basic rules

Do

  • Use it for nonnegative parts of the same whole and identify that whole and its time period.

  • Provide names, values and proportions, and choose a bar chart when small differences matter.

  • Associate labels and leader lines with the correct slice and use a legend on narrow screens when needed.

Don't

  • Do not combine overlapping categories or values belonging to different wholes in one pie.

  • Do not create excessive tiny slices or distort angles and areas with 3D or tilt effects.

  • Do not force values inside tiny slices and overlap labels.
