Hi Folks,

Does anyone have a routine for creating great looking
pie charts in IDL? I have the idea that with almost no
effort IDL could compete with Excel in the Microsoft
world. :^)

Cheers,

David

Last time I looked, this was the best (maybe only) example I found:

As to whether it's great looking... beauty is surely in the eye of the
beholder.

P.S. a google search for "IDL pie charts" also includes this link:
