Highcharts - 3D Pie Chart

We have already seen the configuration used to draw a chart in Highcharts Configuration Syntax chapter.

An example of a 3D Pie Chart is given below.

Configurations

Let us now see the additional configurations/steps taken.

chart.options3d

Configure the chart type to be 3D based. Set the type as 'Pie'. Here, the charts can be rendered in 3 dimensions.

var chart = {
   type: 'pie',
   options3d: {
      enabled: true,
      alpha: 15,
      beta: 15,
      depth: 50,
      viewDistance: 25
   }
};
