About This Feature

Overview

Pie Chart is a dashboard chart component in WPS Office for Mac. It uses circular slices to show how each category contributes to the whole, making it useful for share analysis, allocation summaries, channel contribution reviews, and status distribution tracking.

Core capabilities include:

Add a pie chart component: Insert a chart into a dashboard and open it for editing.
Edit and export the chart: Reconfigure, copy, copy as an image, export as an image, or delete the chart.
Set chart type and data: Choose the data source, filter range, slice grouping, calculation method, and sorting method.
Adjust chart style: Change theme colors, series colors, label content, and legend display.

Capability Summary	Add a pie chart to a dashboard, switch between pie and doughnut styles, configure data source and filters, sort data, adjust labels and legends, and copy or export the chart as an image.	Excel lets users insert pie or doughnut charts and refine them with Chart Elements, Chart Styles, and Chart Filters for labels, style, and displayed data.	Google Sheets supports pie and doughnut charts with slice labels, legend position, border color, and slice customization.	Notion chart view supports donut charts from databases, with grouping, sorting, legends, data labels, and PNG or SVG export.	Adobe Express supports pie chart creation for visual design, with legends, numeric data entry, color changes, downloads, and collaboration.
WPS Advantages	Advantage: WPS keeps chart insertion, data setup, style adjustment, and image export in one dashboard workflow, which is practical for business dashboards and reporting views.	Compared with WPS: Excel is centered on spreadsheet chart creation, while dashboard-style component management usually depends on worksheet-based workflows or other Microsoft products.	Compared with WPS: Google Sheets works well for spreadsheet chart editing, but dashboard-style component management is less centralized than in WPS.	Compared with WPS: Notion supports database chart views, but its Free plan allows only one chart trial and chart editing depends on database view structure.	Compared with WPS: Adobe Express is more focused on visual design output, while dashboard-oriented data source configuration is less emphasized in its chart guidance.

Overall Conclusion
WPS Pie Chart is well suited to dashboard-based reporting because chart setup, styling, and image output stay in one workflow. If your priority is building a dashboard and preparing visuals quickly, WPS offers a more concentrated path; if your work starts in a spreadsheet or a design tool, the other options may fit those environments better.
