Templat...::pie3d(3)

✨ NAME ✨

okay bestie, this is the Templat...::pie3d(3) page — the header literally says User Contributed Perl Documentation — and the actual module is Template::Plugin::GD::Graph::pie3d 💅

NAME vibes: Template::Plugin::GD::Graph::pie3d — Create 3D pie charts with legends 🥧✨

---

🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

the whole synopsis is literally this one-liner, periodt:

[% USE g = GD.Graph.pie3d(x_size, y_size); %]

---

🎀 EXAMPLES 🎀

bestie, here’s the example in all its glory — do not touch the punctuation, she is fragile and iconic:

[% FILTER null;
    data = [
        ["1st","2nd","3rd","4th","5th","6th"],
        [    4,    2,    3,    4,    3,  3.5]
    ];

    USE my_graph = GD.Graph.pie3d( 250, 200 );

    my_graph.set(
            title => 'A Pie Chart',
            label => 'Label',
            axislabelclr => 'black',
            pie_height => 36,

            transparent => 0,
    );
    my_graph.plot(data).png | stdout(1);
   END;
-%]

🦋 DESCRIPTION 🦋

so the GD.Graph.pie3d plugin gives you an interface to the GD::Graph::pie3d class defined by the GD::Graph module. it lets an (x,y) data set be plotted as a 3d pie chart. the x values are typically strings — yes, strings, iykyk 🫶

not me finding out that GD::Graph::pie already produces a 3d effect 😭 so GD::Graph::pie3d is just a wrapper around GD::Graph::pie. similarly, the plugin GD.Graph.pie3d is effectively the same as the plugin GD.Graph.pie.

see GD::Graph3d for more details 👑
