Overlapping shortcuts in a pie chart

Question

Are there any settings to avoid matching labels in a pie chart in SSRS? I have several diagrams with the same problem, if the slices are too small, the text will overlap. Here is a picture of my problem and a possible way I want:

EDIT edited the 3D options so that the labels fit as I wanted them to be. But there was another problem when setting the rotation and tilt to zero, the colors are not as intense as before:

Answer 1

You can try this.

1) On the design surface, right-click outside the pie chart, but inside the borders of the chart and select Chart Properties. The Chart Properties dialog box appears.

2) On the 3D Options tab, select Enable 3D.

3) If you want the chart to have more space for shortcuts, but still display two-dimensional, set the Rotation and Inclination to 0.

Answer 2

to solve this problem:

• go to the properties of the chart area,
• The Chart Properties dialog box appears.
• expand Area3DStlye
• For the Shading property, select: Simple

Answer 3

This is most likely caused by emulation of diffuse glow. The following code worked in the former dund chart for area charts:

Chart1.ChartAreas ("Default"). Area3DStyle.Light = LightStyle.None;

should be something similar for pies.

Answer 4

[Note: the first three parts of this text are the same text as the Swathi responder, but there was a question about the subsequent comment, which was not known, that I found an answer to the question about what colors look muted after D. I would add a comment, but right now I don’t have enough karma.]

1) On the design surface, right-click outside the pie chart, but inside the borders of the chart and select Chart Properties. The Chart Properties dialog box appears.

2) On the 3D Options tab, select Enable 3D.

3) If you want the chart to have more space for shortcuts, but still display two-dimensional, set the Rotation and Inclination to 0.

4) If you want colors not to be muted when using a three-dimensional image to simulate a two-dimensional image, in the “Appearance / 3DDStyle” section, change Shading to None.
