Hello,

For a group data like 60, 20, 10, 5, 4, 0.5, 0.25, 0.125,........

I can add a filter to only have the TOP 5 values with their category name in the PIE Chart, and the other values are lost.

Is there a way to have a Pie Chart like:
Display the TOP 5 values in different pieces with their corresponding category name, and the others(with small values from 0.5 to 0.125) in a single piece named" the Others"


Thanks in advance,
Scroon

Can you remove the top n filter and just set a min slice value?
Set it on the third tab of the chart wizard under Series->Category
Series. See attached example.

Thanks Jason, it works well.

But the fixed min slice value is not very lovely....Since the value of data for pie chart changed significantly each time. Sometimes all the data fell into the "Others", sometime none of them...

I tried to use a parameter in the min slice value like "params["valueoftop5"].value" but it didn't work. The pie chart wizard seems does not support JavaScript for min slice value..

Can I set the min slice value with JavaScript in some event of the Pie chart plz?

Best,
Scroon

I modified the example to show it tied to a parameter. Look at the
beforeDataSetFilled script.

Hello Jason,

Thanks so much for your help, now I can set the min slice value dynamically.

Best,
Scroon
