ChartDirector 6.0 (ColdFusion Edition)

Multi-Depth Pie Chart




This example demonstrates a 3D pie chart where sectors have different 3D heights.

Instead of using PieChart.set3D to set a single 3D depth for all sectors, in this example, PieChart.set3D2 is used to set different depths for the sectors with an array of integers.

// ChartDirector for ColdFusion API Access Point

// A utility to allow us to create arrays with data in one line of code
function Array() {
    var result = ArrayNew(1);
    var i = 0;
    for (i = 1; i LTE ArrayLen(arguments); i = i + 1)
        result[i] = arguments[i];
    return result;
}

// The data for the pie chart
data = Array(72, 18, 15, 12);

// The labels for the pie chart
labels = Array("Labor", "Machinery", "Facilities", "Computers");

// The depths for the sectors
depths = Array(30, 20, 10, 10);

// Create a PieChart object of size 360 x 300 pixels, with a light blue (DDDDFF) background and a 1
// pixel 3D border
c = cd.PieChart(360, 300, "0xddddff", -1, 1);

// Set the center of the pie at (180, 175) and the radius to 100 pixels
c.setPieSize(180, 175, 100);

// Add a title box using 15pt Times Bold Italic font and blue (AAAAFF) as background color
c.addTitle("Project Cost Breakdown", "Times New Roman Bold Italic", 15).setBackground("0xaaaaff");

// Set the pie data and the pie labels
c.setData(data, labels);

// Draw the pie in 3D with variable 3D depths
c.set3D2(depths);

// Set the start angle to 225 degrees may improve layout when the depths of the sector are sorted in
// descending order, because it ensures the tallest sector is at the back.
c.setStartAngle(225);

// Output the chart
chart1URL = c.makeSession(GetPageContext(), "chart1");

// Include tool tip for the chart
imageMap1 = c.getHTMLImageMap("", "", "title='{label}: US${value}K ({percent}%)'");
