The @Code "@Slice" symbol has options for controlling the
slice. @Index { @Code "@Slice" symbol (pie graphs) }
piegraphs. @RawIndex { pie graphs }
piegraphs.slice @SubIndex { @Code "@Slice" symbol }
appearance of the slice it makes:
@ID -1px @Break @OneRow @Code @Verbatim {
@Slice
    weight { 10 }
    paint { none }
    texture { solid }
    outlinestyle { solid }
    outlinedashlength { 0.2f }
    outlinewidth { thin }
    detach { no }
}
This example shows the default values of the options.
@PP
The @Code weight option is the weight (angular extent) of
weight.pie @Index { @Code "weight" option (pie graphs) }
piegraphs. @RawIndex { pie graphs }
piegraphs.weight @SubIndex { @Code "weight" option }
the slice.  By default, the total weight of the complete
pie graph is 100, so a slice of weight 10, say, would occupy
10% of the pie area, or in other words an angular extent
of (10"/"100) @Multiply 360 degrees.  You can change the
@I total weight by setting an option to the @Code "@Pie" symbol:
totalweight.pie @Index { @Code "totalweight" option (pie graphs) }
piegraphs. @RawIndex { pie graphs }
piegraphs.totalweight @SubIndex { @Code "totalweight" option }
@ID -1px @Break @OneRow @Code @Verbatim {
@Pie
    totalweight { 360 }
}
The value 360 would be useful if you wanted your weights to
correspond with degrees.  It would be good to get @Code "@Pie"
to add up all the weights of its constituent slices and use
that for the total weight, but problems behind the scenes
prevent this.  As it is, if the total weight of all slices
is less than {@Code totalweight}, the leftover angular
extent will be blank; and if it exceeds {@Code totalweight},
later slices will overstrike earlier ones.
@PP
The @Code paint option defines the colour of the interior
paint. @RawIndex { @Code "paint" option }
paint.in.pie @SubIndex { in pie graphs }
piegraphs. @RawIndex { pie graphs }
piegraphs.paint @SubIndex { @Code "paint" option }
of the slice.  Any colour acceptable to the {@Code "@Colour"}
symbol (Section {@NumberOf colour}) is allowed, plus the
default value {@Code none}, meaning no paint.  As always,
alongside the @Code "paint" option there is a @Code "texture"
texture.option. @RawIndex { @Code "texture" option }
texture.option.in.pie @SubIndex { in pie graphs }
piegraphs. @RawIndex { pie graphs }
piegraphs.texture @SubIndex { @Code "texture" option }
option:
@ID -1px @Break @OneRow @Code @Verbatim {
@Pie
    paint { grey }
{
    @Slice
        weight { 20 }
        texture { striped }
        label { Admin (20%) }
    @Slice
        weight { 40 }
        texture { striped angle { 45d } }
        label { Research (40%) }
    @Slice
        weight { 40 }
        texture { striped angle { 90d } }
        label { Teaching (40%) }
}
}
produces
@CD
@Pie
    paint { grey }
{
    @Slice
        weight { 20 }
        texture { striped }
        label { Admin (20%) }
    @Slice
        weight { 40 }
        texture { striped angle { 45d } }
        label { Research (40%) }
    @Slice
        weight { 40 }
        texture { striped angle { 90d } }
        label { Teaching (40%) }
}
Textures might work better in black and white prints.
@PP
The next three options affect the outline drawn around each
slice.  The @Code outlinestyle option
outlinestyle. @RawIndex { @Code "outlinestyle" option }
outlinestyle.in.pie @SubIndex { in pie graphs }
piegraphs. @RawIndex { pie graphs }
piegraphs.outlinestyle @SubIndex { @Code "outlinestyle" option }
may be {@Code solid} (the default) which
draws a solid line, {@Code dashed} which draws a dashed
line, {@Code cdashed} which draws a dashed line with
half-size dashes at the ends (this often looks better
than {@Code dashed}), @Code "dotted" which draws a dotted line,
and @Code noline which draws no outline at all.  The
@Code outlinedashlength option determines the dash length
outlinedashlength. @RawIndex { @Code "outlinedashlength" option }
outlinedashlength.in.pie @SubIndex { in pie graphs }
piegraphs. @RawIndex { pie graphs }
piegraphs.outlinedashlength @SubIndex { @Code "outlinedashlength" option }
if @Code outlinestyle is @Code dashed or {@Code cdashed}, and
the distance between dots if @Code outlinestyle is
{@Code dotted}.  The length will be varied a little to ensure
that the dashes or dots fit evenly on each segment of the
outline.  The @Code "outlinewidth" option determines the width
outlinewidth. @RawIndex { @Code "outlinewidth" option }
outlinewidth.in.pie @SubIndex { in pie graphs }
piegraphs. @RawIndex { pie graphs }
piegraphs.outlinewidth @SubIndex { @Code "outlinewidth" option }
of the outline, or the diameter of the dots if @Code outlinestyle
is {@Code dotted}.
@PP
You can give three values to {@Code outlinestyle}, like this:
@ID -1px @Break @OneRow @Code @Verbatim {
@Pie
{   red @Colour @Slice
        weight { 75 }
        outlinestyle { dashed cdashed dotted }
        label { Bad debts }
}
}
and the first will apply to the first straight segment,
the second to the curved segment, and the third to the
second straight segment:
@CD @Pie
{   red @Colour @Slice
        weight { 75 }
        outlinestyle { dashed cdashed dotted }
        label { Bad debts }
}
There is no option to change the colour of the outline,
but you can change the colour of the whole slice using
the {@Code "@Colour"} symbol from Section {@NumberOf colour}
as shown.  It colours the label as well, but you can
fix that by enclosing the contents of your label in
another {@Code "@Colour"} symbol if you need to.
@PP
The @Code detach option pulls its slice radially out of the
detach.pie @Index { @Code "detach" option (pie graphs) }
piegraphs. @RawIndex { pie graphs }
piegraphs.detach @SubIndex { @Code "detach" option }
pie, without affecting any other slice:
@CD @Pie
    # abovecaption { Ideal breakdown of academic workload }
    aboveextra { 0.7c }
{
    @Slice
        detach { yes }
        weight { 20 }
        label { Admin (20%) }
    @Slice
        weight { 40 }
        paint { green }
        label { Research (40%) }
    @Slice
        weight { 40 }
        paint { lightred }
        label { Teaching (40%) }
}
is produced by
@ID -1px @Break @OneRow @Code @Verbatim {
@Pie
    aboveextra { 0.7c }
{
    @Slice
        detach { yes }
        weight { 20 }
        label { Admin (20%) }
    @Slice
        weight { 40 }
        paint { green }
        label { Research (40%) }
    @Slice
        weight { 40 }
        paint { lightred }
        label { Teaching (40%) }
}
}
We've used the @Code aboveextra option
(Section {@NumberOf pie_over}) to compensate for Lout's
ignorance of where the slice actually ended up.
The value of @Code detach may be {@Code no} (the
default), {@Code yes}, or any number, which defines
the fraction of the pie radius that the slice is
pulled out by.  For example, @Code yes is just another
name for {@Code 0.5}.
