\nTOKYO (MacHouse) – A long time ago, I developed an iPad<\/strong> application for creating a 2D pie chart. Hmm… Maybe, I can do it in 3D with the SceneKit<\/strong>. Actually, I submitted a new OS X<\/strong> application to Mac App Store<\/strong> a couple of hours ago. This new software release is called Pie-3D<\/strong>.   <\/p>\n

Pie-3D is an OS X desktop application that lets you easily create a pie chart. A pie chart can have as many as 50 sectors, each of which can be individually colored, of course. Pie-3D will automatically create field labels so that one can tell which pie represents which field with what color.

\nAs the application name suggests, Pie-3D lets you create a pie chart in 3D, not in 2D. So you can give a pie chart a depth. And you can rotate a pie chart around the X, Y, Z axis. Moreover, you can make your pie chart look slightly different by changing the light type and the position of the light source.
