Inheritance
AmPieChart extends AmSlicedChart
.
AmPieChart is not extended by any other symbol.
Properties
adjustPrecision # |
Type Default Sometimes, because of a rounding, percent of a sum of all slices is not equal to 100%. If you set this to true, when this case happens, number of decimals will be increased so that sum would become 100%. |
---|---|
angle # |
Type Default Pie lean angle (for 3D effect). Valid range is 0 - 90. |
balloonFunction # |
If you set some function, the graph will call it and pass GraphDataItem object to it. This function should return a string which will be displayed in a balloon. |
balloonText # |
Type Default Balloon text. The following tags can be used: [[value]], [[title]], [[percents]], [[description]] or any other field name from your data provider. HTML tags can also be used. |
depth3D # |
Type Default Depth of the pie (for 3D effect). |
gradientType # |
Type Default Type of gradient. Use gradientRatio to create gradients. |
innerRadius # |
Type Default Inner radius of the pie, in pixels or percents. |
labelRadius # |
Type Default The distance between the label and the slice, in pixels. You can use negative values to put the label on the slice. |
labelRadiusField # |
Type Name of the field in dataProvider which specifies the length of a tick. Note, the chart will not try to arrange labels automatically if this property is set. |
labelText # |
Type Default Label text. The following tags can be used: [[value]], [[title]], [[percents]], [[description]] or any other field name from your data provider. |
minRadius # |
Type Default Minimum radius of the pie, in pixels. |
pieX # |
Type You can set fixed position of a pie center, in pixels or in percents. |
pieY # |
Type You can set fixed position of a pie center, in pixels or in percents. |

Type Default Pull out radius, in pixels or percents |
radius # |
Type Radius of a pie, in pixels or percents. By default, radius is calculated automatically. |
startAngle # |
Type Default Angle of the first slice, in degrees. This will work properly only if "depth3D" is set to 0. If "depth3D" is greater than 0, then there can be two angles only: 90 and 270. Value range is 0-360. |
startRadius # |
Type Default Radius of the positions from which the slices will fly in. |
accessibleLabel # |
Type Default Inherited from Text which screen readers will read if user rolls-over the slice or sets focus using tab key (this is possible only if tabIndex property of AmSlicedChart is set to some number). Text is added as aria-label tag. Note - not all screen readers and browsers support this. |
alpha # |
Type Default Inherited from Opacity of all slices. |
alphaField # |
Type Inherited from Name of the field in chart's dataProvider which holds slice's alpha. |
baseColor # |
Type Inherited from Color of the first slice. All the other will be colored with darker or brighter colors. Use brightnessStep to set intensity of color change for each subsequent slice. |
brightnessStep # |
Type Default Inherited from If you set baseColor to some color, the chart will not use colors array to color each slice but rather this setting to color the first slice with gradually increasing (or decreasing) brightness for each subsequent slice. This setting describes the intensity of each step. Set to positive number to make the color brighter with each slice. Set to negative to make the colors darker for subsequent slices. |

gradientRatio # |
Type Default Inherited from Example: [-0.2, 0, -0.2]. Will make slices to be filled with color gradients. Negative value means the color will be darker than the original, and positive number means the color will be lighter. |
groupedAlpha # |
Type Default Inherited from Opacity of the group slice. Value range is 0 - 1. |

hideLabelsPercent # |
Type Default Inherited from Slices with percent less then hideLabelsPercent won't display labels This is useful to avoid cluttering up the chart, if you have a lot of small slices. 0 means all labels will be shown. |
hoverAlpha # |
Type Default Inherited from Opacity of a hovered slice. Value range is 0 - 1. |
labelColorField # |
Type Default Inherited from A field in data which holds color value for the tick. Use it to set color of the label for each slice individually. |

accessible # |
Type Default Inherited from When enabled, chart adds aria-label attributes to columns, bullets or map objects. You can control values of these labels using properties like accessibleLabel of AmGraph. Note, not all screen readers support these tags. We tested this mostly with NVDA Screen reader. WAI-ARIA is now official W3 standard, so in future more readers will handle this well. We will be improving accessibility on our charts, so we would be glad to hear your feedback. |
accessibleDescription # |
Type Inherited from Description which will be added to |
accessibleTitle # |
Type Inherited from Description which is added to |
addClassNames # |
Type Default Inherited from Specifies, if class names should be added to chart elements. |
allLabels # |
Type Default Inherited from Array of Labels. Example of label object, with all possible properties: {"x": 20, "y": 20, "text": "this is label", "align": "left", "size": 12, "color": "#CC0000", "alpha": 1, "rotation": 0, "bold": true, "url": "http://www.amcharts.com"} |
autoDisplay # |
Type Default Inherited from If you set it to true the chart will automatically monitor changes of display style of chart’s container (or any of it’s parents) and will render chart correctly if it is changed from none to block. We recommend setting it to true if you change this style at a run time, as it affects performance a bit. |
autoResize # |
Type Default Inherited from Set this to false if you don't want chart to resize itself whenever its parent container size changes. |
autoTransform # |
Type Default Inherited from If you set it to true and your chart div (or any of the parent div) has css scale applied, the chart will position mouse at a correct position. Default value is false because this operation consumes some CPU and quite a few people are using css transfroms. |
backgroundAlpha # |
Type Default Inherited from Opacity of background. Set it to >0 value if you want backgroundColor to work. However we recommend changing div's background-color style for changing background color. |
backgroundColor # |
Type Default Inherited from Background color. You should set backgroundAlpha to >0 value in order background to be visible. We recommend setting background color directly on a chart's DIV instead of using this property. |
balloon # |
Type Default Inherited from The chart creates AmBalloon class itself. If you want to customize balloon, get balloon instance using this property, and then change balloon's properties. |
borderAlpha # |
Type Default Inherited from Opacity of chart's border. Value range is 0 - 1. |
borderColor # |
Type Default Inherited from Color of chart's border. You should set borderAlpha >0 in order border to be visible. We recommend setting border color directly on a chart's DIV instead of using this property. |
classNamePrefix # |
Type Default Inherited from This prefix is added to all class names which are added to all visual elements of a chart in case addClassNames is set to true. |
color # |
Type Default Inherited from Text color. |
creditsPosition # |
Type Default Inherited from Non-commercial version only. Specifies position of link to amCharts site. Allowed values are: top-left, top-right, bottom-left and bottom-right. |
dataProvider # |
Type Inherited from Array of data objects, for example: [{country:"US", value:524},{country:"UK", value:624},{country:"Lithuania", value:824}]. You can have any number of fields and use any field names. In case of AmMap, data provider should be MapData object. The data set data. Important: if you are using date/time-based category axis, the data points needs to come pre-ordered in ascending order. Data with incorrect order might result in visual and functional glitches on the chart. |
decimalSeparator # |
Type Default Inherited from Decimal separator. |
defs # |
Type Inherited from Using this property you can add any additional information to SVG, like SVG filters or clip paths. The structure of this object should be identical to XML structure of a object you are adding, only in JSON format. |

Type Default Inherited from Font family. |
fontSize # |
Type Default Inherited from Font size. |
handDrawn # |
Type Default Inherited from If you set this to true, the lines of the chart will be distorted and will produce hand-drawn effect. Try to adjust chart.handDrawScatter and chart.handDrawThickness properties for a more scattered result. |
handDrawScatter # |
Type Default Inherited from Defines by how many pixels hand-drawn line (when handDrawn is set to true) will fluctuate. |
handDrawThickness # |
Type Default Inherited from Defines by how many pixels line thickness will fluctuate (when handDrawn is set to true). |
hideBalloonTime # |
Type Default Inherited from Time, in milliseconds after which balloon is hidden if the user rolls-out of the object. Might be useful for AmMap to avoid balloon flickering while moving mouse over the areas. Note, this is not duration of fade-out. Duration of fade-out is set in AmBalloon class. |
language # |
Type Inherited from Allows changing language easily. Note, you should include language js file from amcharts/lang or ammap/lang folder and then use variable name used in this file, like chart.language = "de"; Note, for maps this works differently - you use language only for country names, as there are no other strings in the maps application. |
legend # |
Type Inherited from Legend of a chart. |
listeners # |
Type Inherited from You can add listeners of events using this property. Example: listeners = [{"event":"dataUpdated", "method":handleEvent}]; |
panEventsEnabled # |
Type Default Inherited from This setting affects touch-screen devices only. If a chart is on a page, and panEventsEnabled are set to true, the page won't move if the user touches the chart first. If a chart is big enough and occupies all the screen of your touch device, the user won’t be able to move the page at all. If you think that selecting/panning the chart or moving/pinching the map is a primary purpose of your users, you should set panEventsEnabled to true, otherwise - false. |
path # |
Type Default Inherited from Specifies absolute or relative path to amCharts files, i.e. "amcharts/". (where all .js files are located) If relative URLs are used, they will be relative to the current web page, displaying the chart. You can also set path globally, using global JavaScript variable AmCharts_path. If this variable is set, and "path" is not set in chart config, the chart will assume the path from the global variable. This allows setting amCharts path globally. I.e.: var AmCharts_path = "/libs/amcharts/"; "path" parameter will be used by the charts to locate it's files, like images, plugins or patterns. |
pathToImages # |
Type Inherited from Specifies path to the folder where images like resize grips, lens and similar are. IMPORTANT: Since V3.14.12, you should use "path" to point to amCharts directory instead. The "pathToImages" will be automatically set and does not need to be in the chart config, unless you keep your images separately from other amCharts files. |
percentPrecision # |
Type Default Inherited from Precision of percent values. -1 means percent values won't be rounded at all and show as they are. |
precision # |
Type Default Inherited from Precision of values. -1 means values won't be rounded at all and show as they are. |
prefixesOfBigNumbers # |
Type Default Inherited from Prefixes which are used to make big numbers shorter: 2M instead of 2000000, etc. Prefixes are used on value axes and in the legend. To enable prefixes, set usePrefixes property to true. |
prefixesOfSmallNumbers # |
Type Default Inherited from Prefixes which are used to make small numbers shorter: 2μ instead of 0.000002, etc. Prefixes are used on value axes and in the legend. To enable prefixes, set usePrefixes property to true. |
processCount # |
Type Default Inherited from If processTimeout is > 0, 1000 data items will be parsed at a time, then the chart will make pause and continue parsing data until it finishes. |
processTimeout # |
Type Default Inherited from If you set it to 1 millisecond or some bigger value, chart will be built in chunks instead of all at once. This is useful if you work with a lot of data and the initial build of the chart takes a lot of time, which freezes the whole web application by not allowing other processes to do their job while the chart is busy. |
svgIcons # |
Type Default Inherited from Charts will use SVG icons (some are loaded from images folder and some are drawn inline) if browser supports SVG. his makes icons look good on retina displays on all resolutions. |
tapToActivate # |
Type Default Inherited from Charts which require gestures like swipe (charts with scrollbar/cursor) or pinch (maps) used to prevent regular page scrolling and could result page to stick to the same spot if the chart occupied whole screen. Now, in order these gestures to start working user has to touch the chart/maps once. Regular touch events like touching on the bar/slice/map area do not require the first tap and will show balloons and perform other tasks as usual. If you have a map or chart which occupies full screen and your page does not require scrolling, set tapToActivate to false – this will bring old behavior back. |
theme # |
Type Default Inherited from Theme of a chart. Config files of themes can be found in amcharts/themes/ folder. More info about using themes. |
thousandsSeparator # |
Type Default Inherited from Thousands separator. |
titles # |
Type Default Inherited from Array of Title objects. |
touchClickDuration # |
Type Default Inherited from If you set it to 200 (milliseconds) or so, the chart will fire clickGraphItem or clickSlice (AmSlicedChart) or clickMapObject only if user holds his/her finger for 0.2 seconds (200 ms) on the column/bullet/slice/map object. |
type # |
Type Inherited from Type of a chart. Required when creating chart using JSON. Possible types are: serial, pie, xy, radar, funnel, gauge, map, gantt, stock. |
usePrefixes # |
Type Default Inherited from If true, prefixes will be used for big and small numbers. You can set arrays of prefixes via prefixesOfSmallNumbers and prefixesOfBigNumbers properties. |
