## Detailed Description

A pie series consists of slices that are defined as QPieSlice objects. The slices can have any values as the QPieSeries object calculates the percentage of a slice compared with the sum of all slices in the series to determine the actual size of the slice in the graph.

Pie size and position on the graph are controlled by using relative values that range from 0.0 to 1.0. These relate to the actual graph rectangle.

By default, the pie is defined as a full pie. A partial pie can be created by setting a starting angle and angle span for the series. A full pie is 360 degrees, where 0 is at 12 a'clock.

See also QPieSlice.

## Member Type Documentation

### `[since 6.10]` enum class QPieSeries::LabelVisibility

The mode for label visibility.

Constant | Value | Description
--- | --- | ---
`QPieSeries::LabelVisibility::None` | `0` | All of the labels of slices with smaller angle span than the angleSpanVisibleLimit will be hidden.
`QPieSeries::LabelVisibility::First` | `1` | All except the first label of consecutive slices with smaller angle span than the angleSpanVisibleLimit will be hidden. This is the default value.
`QPieSeries::LabelVisibility::Even` | `2` | Every other label of consecutive slices with smaller angle span than the angleSpanVisibleLimit will be hidden, starting from the second one.
`QPieSeries::LabelVisibility::Odd` | `3` | Every other label of consecutive slices with smaller angle span than the angleSpanVisibleLimit will be hidden, starting from the first one.

This enum was introduced in Qt 6.10.

See also QPieSeries::angleSpanVisibleLimit.

## Property Documentation

### `[since 6.10]` angleSpanLabelVisibility : LabelVisibility

This property holds the mode for label visibility.

The mode which determines which labels will be hidden if they are under the angle span limit set with angleSpanVisibleLimit. Has no effect if angleSpanVisibleLimit has not been set.

This enumeration was introduced in Qt 6.10.

Access functions:

QPieSeries::LabelVisibility | angleSpanLabelVisibility() const
void | setAngleSpanLabelVisibility(QPieSeries::LabelVisibility newAngleSpanVisibleMode)

Notifier signal:

void | angleSpanLabelVisibilityChanged(QPieSeries::LabelVisibility visibility)

See also QPieSeries::angleSpanVisibleLimit.

### `[since 6.10]` angleSpanVisibleLimit : qreal

This property holds the angle span limit for label visibility.

The angle span that will be used as the visibility limit for a slice label. A slice with angle span under this value will change its visibility based on the angleSpanLabelVisibility set to the series. The default value is `0`, which means no slices will be hidden regardless of the angleSpanLabelVisibility.

This enumeration was introduced in Qt 6.10.

Access functions:

qreal | angleSpanVisibleLimit() const
void | setAngleSpanVisibleLimit(qreal newAngleSpanVisibleLimit)

Notifier signal:

void | angleSpanVisibleLimitChanged(qreal limit)

See also QPieSeries::angleSpanLabelVisibility.

void | setEndAngle(qreal angle)

Notifier signal:

Access functions:

qreal | holeSize() const
void | setHoleSize(qreal holeSize)

Notifier signal:

void | holeSizeChanged()

Access functions:

qreal | horizontalPosition() const
void | setHorizontalPosition(qreal relativePosition)

Notifier signal:

void | horizontalPositionChanged()

See also verticalPosition.

### pieSize : qreal

This property holds the pie size.

The value is relative to the graph rectangle, so that:

- 0.0 is the minimum pieSize (pie not drawn).
- 1.0 is the maximum pieSize that can fit the graph.

When setting this property, the holeSize property is adjusted if necessary, to ensure that the hole size is not greater than the pie size.

The default value is 0.7.

Access functions:

qreal | pieSize() const
void | setPieSize(qreal relativeSize)

Notifier signal:

void | pieSizeChanged()

Notifier signal:

void | sumChanged()

### verticalPosition : qreal

This property holds the vertical position of the pie.

The value is relative to the graph rectangle, so that:

- 0.0 is the absolute top.
- 1.0 is the absolute bottom.

The default value is 0.5 (center).

Access functions:

qreal | verticalPosition() const
