Hi all,

I tried to plot the pie chart and encountered the problem which is caused,
IMHO, by incorrect rendering of slices.
To reproduce this bug, try to plot a pie chart with the properties as
follows:
ExplodeBiggest =15
series data array={85, 6, 8}
TeeChart properties:
Aspect.Elevation=315
Aspect.View3D=true

The rest of the properties are insignificant and can be left as default.

This will draw a 3D pie chart with the biggest slice separated from the rest
of the pie.

What you will see is, the front part of the biggest slice is hidden behind a
smaller slice, whereas it should be the opposite. Clearly, the front part of
the biggest slice must be rendered after the smaller slice is drawn.

Does anyone know a way around this problem?

Another problem is that apparently ExplodedSlice collection has no effect on
the chart at all.

Thanks,
Val
