The BiVariate Pie Chart visualizes category-wise distribution as pie slices, split across multiple grids based on a chosen dimension. It supports flexible label positioning, rose charts, border radii, and custom coloring per category.

Key Features:

  • Multi-grid pie charts using Split dimension.
  • Optional rose chart variations (None, Radius, Area).
  • Per-category custom colors or palette-based coloring.
  • Adjustable label position, orientation, and content.
  • Configurable inner and outer radius for donut effects.
  • Optional start angle rotation and clockwise settings.
  • Grid layout with configurable rows, columns, and gaps.
  • Rich tooltips and accessible ARIA support.

Use Cases:

  • Comparing category-wise breakdowns across multiple regions, periods, or product types.

  • Building rose charts for cyclic or directional data insights.
