SectorOrigin

SectorOrigin
is an option to PieChart and related functions that specifies where sectors should start.
MORE INFORMATION
Automaticdetermine the position of the first sector automatically
Left,Right,Top,Bottomstart the first sector in the specified direction
start the first sector radians from the positive x axis
  • SectorOrigin-> specifies that the first sector should begin at angle counterclockwise from the positive axis.
  • By default, sectors are added clockwise starting from the first sector.
  • SectorOrigin specifies the sense in which sectors should be added. Possible values are (or ) and (or ).
  • For donut-like charts, specifies that sectors should have inner radius r.
  • In PieChart and PieChart3D, r gives the fraction of the width of the annulus for each sector.
