Optional Arguments

Options in a PIE, PIE3D, or DONUT statement affect all graphs that are produced by that statement. You can specify as many options as you want and list them in any order. For details about specifying colors, see Using Colors in SAS/GRAPH Programs. For a complete description of the graphics options, see Graphics Options and Device Parameters Dictionary.

ACROSS=number-of-columns

draws number-of-columns pies across the procedure output area. ACROSS is ignored unless you also use the GROUP= option.

If number-of-columns calls for more pies than fit horizontally in the graphics output area, no pies are drawn and an error message is written to the SAS log.

If you also use the DOWN= option, the pies are drawn in left-to-right and top-to-bottom order.

ANGLE=degrees

starts the first slice at the specified angle. A value of 0 for degrees corresponds to the three o'clock position. Degrees can be either positive or negative. Positive values move the starting position in the counterclockwise direction; negative values move the starting position clockwise. By default, ANGLE=0. Successive slices are drawn counterclockwise from the starting slice.

ANNOTATE=Annotate-data-set

specifies a data set to annotate all graphs that are produced by the GCHART procedure. To annotate individual graphs, use the ANNOTATE= option in the action statement.

Alias:ANNO=

Note:Annotate coordinate systems 1, 2, 7, and 8 (data system coordinates) are not valid with block, pie, donut, or star charts.

See:Using Annotate Data Sets

ASCENDING

arranges the slices in ascending order of the value of the chart statistic. By default, slices are arranged in ascending order of midpoint value, without regard to size. The ASCENDING option reorders the slices from smallest to largest. The OTHER slice is still last regardless of its size.

Interactions:If you also use the GROUP= option, the reordering is performed separately for each group, so the order of the midpoint values might be different for each pie or donut.

The ASCENDING option overrides any midpoint order that is specified with the MIDPOINTS= option.

CFILL=fill-color

specifies one color for all patterns in the chart, regardless of whether the fill is solid or hatch. For the PIE3D statement, the fill is always solid. For the PIE and DONUT statements, it is possible that no pattern is specified in the pattern statement or with the FILL= option. In this case the procedure starts with the default solid fill and then, beginning with P2N0, uses each default pie hatch pattern with the specified color. For the outline color, the procedure uses the default color, which is retrieved from the current style. However, if the NOGSTYLE option is specified, the procedure uses the first color in the device's color list. Use the COUTLINE= option to specify a different outline color. The CFILL= option overrides any other pattern color specification and controls the color of all slices.

Example:Ordering and Labeling Slices in a Pie Chart

CLOCKWISE

draws the slices clockwise starting at the twelve o'clock position. Although this position implies ANGLE=90, you can use the ANGLE= option to specify a different starting angle.

COUTLINE=slice-outline-color | SAME

outlines all slices, rings (subgroups), and legend values (if a legend appears) in the specified color. SAME specifies that the outline color of a slice or a slice segment or a legend value is the same as the interior pattern color.

The default outline color depends in the PATTERN statement:

• If you do not specify a PATTERN statement, the default outline color is the color of the current style.
• If you specify the NOGSTYLE option and no PATTERN statement, the default outline color is black for the Java or ActiveX devices. Otherwise, the default outline color is the foreground color. If you specify an EMPTY PATTERN statement, then the default outline color is the same as the fill color.

Subgrouping a Donut or Pie Chart

CTEXT=text-color

specifies a color for all text on the axes and legend. This includes axis labels, tick mark values, legend labels, and legend value descriptions. The GCHART procedure looks for the text color in the following order:

1. the colors specified for labels and values on assigned AXIS and LEGEND statements, which override the CTEXT= option specified on either the PIE or DONUT statement.
2. the color specified by the CTEXT= option in the PIE or DONUT statement.
3. the color specified by the CTEXT= option in a GOPTIONS statement.
4. the color specified in the current style. However, if the NOGSTYLE option is specified, then the default color is black for the Java and ActiveX devices and the first color in the color list for all other devices.

The LEGEND statement's VALUE= color is used for legend values, and its LABEL= color is used for legend labels.

The AXIS statement's VALUE= color is used for axis values, and its LABEL= color is used for axis labels. However, if the AXIS statement specifies only general axis colors with its COLOR= option, the CTEXT= color overrides the general COLOR= specification and is used for axis labels and values. The COLOR= color is still used for all other axis colors, such as tick marks.

Style reference:Color attributes of the GraphValueText and the GraphLabelText elements

Note:If you use a BY statement in the procedure, the color of the BY variable labels is controlled by the CBY= option in the GOPTIONS statement.

Example:Subgrouping a Donut or Pie Chart

DESCENDING

arranges the slices in descending order of the value of the chart statistic. By default, slices are arranged in ascending order of alphabetical or numeric midpoint value, without regard to size or summary statistic. DESCENDING reorders the slices from largest to smallest. The OTHER slice is still last, regardless of its size.

If you also use the GROUP= option, the reordering is performed separately for each group, so the order of midpoint values might be different for each pie or donut.

DESCENDING overrides any midpoint order that is specified with the MIDPOINTS= option.

DESCRIPTION=“description”

specifies a description of the output. The maximum length for description is 256 characters. The description does not appear in the output. The descriptive text is shown in each of the following:

• the chart description for Web output (depending on the device driver). See Chart Descriptions for Web Presentations for more information.
• the Table of Contents that is generated when you use the CONTENTS= option on an ODS HTML statement, assuming that the output is generated while the contents page is open.
• the description and the properties for the output in the Results window.
• the description and properties for the catalog entry in the SAS Explorer.
• the Description field of the PROC GREPLAY window.

The description can include the #BYLINE, #BYVAL, and #BYVAR substitution options, which work as they do when used on TITLE, FOOTNOTE, and NOTE statements. Refer to Substituting BY Line Values in a Text String. The 256-character limit applies before the substitution takes place for these options. Thus, if in the SAS program the description text exceeds 256 characters, it is truncated to 256 characters, and then the substitution is performed.

Alias:DES=

Default:Based on the chart type, either PIE CHART or DONUT CHART OF chart-variable

DETAIL=variable (PIE and DONUT only)

produces an inner pie overlay whose slices show the major components that comprise the outer pie's slice. Variable is the variable whose values are used to construct the detail pie. Detail pie slices are always displayed in descending order. If you specify the DETAIL= option and either GROUP= or SUBGROUP=, then the DETAIL= option is ignored.

DETAIL_PERCENT=BEST|NONE (PIE and DONUT only)

specifies the algorithm to use for displaying the percentage values for the detail pie slices. NONE turns off the display of the percentage values.

DETAIL_RADIUS=percent (PIE and DONUT only)

determines the size of the detail pie. Percent specifies the percent of the outer pie radius to use as the detail pie radius. The valid range is 25 to 90. The default is 75.

DETAIL_SLICE=BEST|NONE (PIE and DONUT only)

specifies the algorithm to use for displaying the detail variable labels for the inner pie slices. NONE turns off the display of the detail variable labels.

DETAIL_THRESHOLD=percent (PIE and DONUT only)

determines whether a detail slice is included in the inner pie. Any detail slice comprising percent or more percent of the whole pie is included. The valid range for percent is 0 to 75. The default is 4.

DETAIL_VALUE=BEST|NONE (PIE and DONUT only)

specifies the algorithm to use for displaying the data values for the detail pie slices. NONE turns off the display of the data values.

DISCRETE

treats a numeric chart variable as a discrete variable rather than as a continuous variable. The GCHART procedure creates a separate midpoint and, hence, a separate slice for each unique value of the chart variable. If the chart variable has a format associated with it, each formatted value is treated as a midpoint.

The LEVELS=number-of-midpoints option is ignored when you use the DISCRETE option. The MIDPOINTS= option overrides the DISCRETE option.

DONUTPCT=percent (DONUT only)

specifies the size of the donut hole in percent of the radius of the whole chart. Values of percent range from 0 to 99. By default, DONUTPCT=25.

Example:Subgrouping a Donut or Pie Chart

DOWN=number-of-rows

draws number-of-rows pies vertically in the procedure output area. The DOWN= option is ignored unless you also use the GROUP= option.

If number-of-rows calls for more pies than fit vertically in the graphics area of the output device, no pies are drawn and an error message is written to the SAS log.

If you also use the ACROSS= option, the pies are drawn in left-to-right and top-to-bottom order.

EXPLODE=value-list

pulls the specified slices slightly out from the rest of the pie for added emphasis. Value-list is the list of midpoint values for the slices to be exploded. For a description of value-list, see MIDPOINTS=value-list.

The values in the value list must match the existing midpoints exactly, including the case of character midpoints. Any values in the list that do not correspond to existing midpoints are ignored.

When you use the EXPLODE= option, the radius is reduced to allow room for exploded slices.

Interaction:When used with subgroups, the EXPLODE= option is supported only by the ActiveX and Java devices.

Example:Specifying the Sum Statistic for a Pie Chart

FILL=SOLID | X

specifies the fill pattern for all slices in the chart:

SOLID

rotates a solid fill through the color list of the current style as many times as necessary. SOLID is the default.

Alias:S

X

rotates a single hatch pattern through the list of colors defined in the current style. If the NOGSTYLE option is specified, it rotates the hatch pattern through the device color list as many times as necessary. If you do not specify the colors= goption, the fill skips the first color in the color list.

By default, the outline color is the color defined by the current style. If the NOGSTYLE option is specified, the outline color is the first color in the device's color list . If PATTERN statements are used to specify colors, the slice outline color matches the slice fill color.

Style reference:Color attribute of the GraphData1 element

Restriction:Partially supported by Java and ActiveX

Interactions: FILL= overrides any pattern that is specified in PATTERN statements.

If any PATTERN statements have been defined, the colors in the PATTERN definitions are used, in order, before the default style color rotation.

See:Controlling Bar Chart Patterns, Colors, and Images

PATTERN Statement

FREQ=numeric-variable

specifies a variable whose values weight the contribution of each observation in the computation of the chart statistic. Each observation is counted the number of times specified by the value of numeric-variable for that observation. If the value of numeric-variable is missing, 0, or negative, the observation is not used in the statistic calculation. Non-integer values of numeric-variable are truncated to integers.

FREQ= is valid with all chart statistics.

Because you cannot use TYPE=PERCENT or TYPE=FREQ with the SUMVAR= option, you must use the FREQ= option to calculate percentages and frequencies based on a sum.

The statistics are not affected by applying a format to numeric-variable.

See:Calculating Weighted Statistics

GROUP=group-variable

organizes the data according to values of group-variable and produces a separate pie (or donut) chart for each unique value of group-variable. Group-variable can be either character or numeric and is always treated as a discrete variable. Missing values for group-variable are treated as a valid group. By default, each group includes only those midpoints with nonzero chart statistic values.

By default, the charts are produced in ascending order of group variable value and each is drawn on a separate page or display. Therefore, the effect of the GROUP= option is essentially the same as using a BY statement. The exception is that the GROUP= option causes the midpoints with the same value to use the same color and fill pattern. To place more than one pie on a page or display, use the ACROSS= or DOWN= options, or both.

See:BY Statement

Example:Grouping and Arranging Pie Charts

HTML=variable

identifies the variable in the input data set whose values create links or data tips or both. The variable values are either links or data tips or both that are created in the HTML file generated by the ODS statement. The links are URLs pointing to Web pages to display when the user clicks (drills down) on elements in the graph. Data tips are detailed information or data values that are displayed as pop-up text when a mouse pointer is positioned over elements in the graph.

See:Data Tips for Web Presentations

Adding Links and Enhancements with the URL=, HTML=, and HTML_LEGEND= Options

HTML_LEGEND=variable

identifies the variable in the input data set whose values create links. Input data set variable values create links that are associated with a legend value and point to the URL to display when the user clicks (drills down) on the value.

Restrictions:Not supported by Java and ActiveX

If either subgroups or the DETAIL= option are specified, then the HTML_LEGEND= option is ignored.

See:Adding Links and Enhancements with the URL=, HTML=, and HTML_LEGEND= Options

INVISIBLE=value-list

makes the specified slices invisible, as if they had been removed from the pie. Labels are not printed for invisible slices. Value-list is the list of midpoint values for the invisible slices. See the MIDPOINTS=value-list for a description of value-list.

The values in the value list must match the existing midpoints exactly, including the case of character midpoints. Any values in the list that do not correspond to existing midpoints are ignored.

JSTYLE

arranges the midpoints in descending order of the statistic value and draws the slices clockwise starting at the twelve o'clock position. The JSTYLE option has the same effect as specifying both the DESCENDING and CLOCKWISE options.

LABEL=(text argument(s)) (DONUT only)

defines the text that is displayed in the donut hole. Text-argument(s) defines the text or the appearance of the label, or both. Text-argument(s) can be one or more of the following:

'text-string'

provides the text of the label. Enclose each string in quotation marks. Separate multiple strings with blanks.

In addition, if you have a BY statement and you specify the variable that it names, you can embed one or both of the following in the string:

#BYVALn | #BYVAL(BY-variable-name)

substitutes the current value of the specified BY variable for #BYVAL in the text string and displays the value produced by the statement. Specify the variable with one of these:

n

specifies which variable in the BY statement #BYVAL should use. The value of n indicates the position of the variable in the BY statement. For example, #BYVAL2 specifies the second variable in the BY statement.

BY-variable-name

names the BY variable. For example, #BYVAL(YEAR) specifies the BY variable, YEAR. Variable-name is not case sensitive.

Examples:Using BY-group Processing to Generate a Series of Charts

Combining Graphs and Reports in a Web Page

#BYVARn | #BYVAR(BY-variable-name)

substitutes the name of the BY variable or label associated with the variable (whatever the BY line would normally display) for #BYVAR in the text string and displays the name or label produced by the statement. Specify the variable with one of these:

n

specifies which variable in the BY statement #BYVAR should use. The value of n indicates the position of the variable in the BY statement. For example, #BYVAR2 specifies the second variable in the BY statement.

BY-variable-name

names the BY variable. For example, #BYVAR(SITES) specifies the BY variable, SITES. Variable-name is not case sensitive.

Note:A BY variable name displayed is always in uppercase. If a label is used, it appears as specified in the LABEL statement.

See:Substituting BY Line Values in a Text String

text-description-suboption

modifies a characteristic such as the font, color, or size of the text string(s) that follows it. Text-description-suboption can be

• ANGLE=degrees
• COLOR=color
• FONT=font
• HEIGHT=text-height <units>
• JUSTIFY=LEFT | CENTER | RIGHT
• ROTATE=degrees

Specify as many text strings and text description suboptions as you want, but enclose them all in one set of parentheses.

Restrictions:The Java and ActiveX devices do not support all of the suboptions. See Text Description Suboptions for Donut for a complete description.

#BYVAL or #BYVAR substitution in a text string is not available in the DATA Step Graphics Interface or in the Annotate facility. This is because BY lines are not created in a DATA step.

Example:Subgrouping a Donut or Pie Chart

LEGEND | LEGEND=LEGEND<1...99>

generates a legend for the slice names (midpoint values) instead of printing them beside the slices. The legend displays each slice name and its associated pattern. This option also suppresses the display of the chart statistic values. To display the chart statistics, use the VALUE= option.

If you use the SUBGROUP= option, the legend is automatically generated. However, because patterning is always by midpoint, the legend still describes the midpoint values, not the subgroups.

Specifying LEGEND=LEGENDn assigns the specified LEGEND statement to the legend.

Restriction:The Java and ActiveX devices do not support all LEGEND statement options. See the LEGEND Statement for more information.

Note:If you request a legend and the slices use hatch patterns, the patterns in the slices are oriented to be visually equivalent to the legend.

See:LEGEND Statement

Example:Subgrouping a Donut or Pie Chart

LEVELS=number-of-midpoints | ALL

specifies the number of midpoints to be graphed for a chart variable. After you specify the number of midpoints that you want, the range for each numeric midpoint is calculated automatically using the algorithm described in Terrell and Scott (1985).

If you specify LEVELS=ALL, then all unique numeric or character midpoint values are graphed. You might have instances where the data contains a large number of unique midpoint values (more than 200). In this case you can use the XPIXELS and YPIXELS GOPTIONS to enable the device driver to render a larger (and more readable) graph.

The LEVELS=number-of-midpoints option is ignored if any of the following is true:

• The chart variable is character type.
• The MIDPOINTS= option is used.

MATCHCOLOR

uses the slice pattern color for all slice labels. MATCHCOLOR overrides the color that is specified in the CTEXT= option.

MIDPOINTS=value-list

specifies the midpoint values for the slices. The way you specify value-list depends on the type of variable:

• For numeric chart variables, value-list is either an explicit list of values, or a starting and an ending value with an interval increment, or a combination of both forms:

  • n <...n>
  • n TO n <BY increment>
  • <n...> n TO n <BY increment> <n <...n>>

  If a numeric variable has an associated format, the specified values must be the unformatted values.

  If you omit the DISCRETE option, then numeric values are treated as continuous, which means that the following is true by default:

  • The lowest midpoint consolidates all data points from negative infinity to the median of the first two midpoints.
  • The highest midpoint consolidates all data points from the median of the last two midpoints up to infinity.
  • All other values in value-list specify the median of a range of values, and the GCHART procedure calculates the midpoint values.

  If you include the DISCRETE option, then each value in value-list specifies a unique numeric value.
• For character chart variables, value-list is a list of unique character values enclosed in quotation marks and separated by blanks:

  'value-1' <...'value-n'>

  If a character variable has an associated format, the specified values must be the formatted values.

  You are able to specify up to 256 characters for each variable value.

For a complete description of value-list, see the value-list in the AXIS statement.

Midpoints that represent small percentages are collected into a generic midpoint named OTHER. See the descriptions of OTHER=percent-of-total and OTHERLABEL='text-string' for more information.

See:Understanding Midpoints

Example:Ordering and Labeling Slices in a Pie Chart

MIDPOINTS=OLD

generates default midpoints using the Nelder algorithm (Applied Statistics 25:94–7, 1976). The MIDPOINTS=OLD option is ignored unless the chart variable is numeric

MISSING

accepts a missing value as a valid midpoint for the chart variable. By default, observations with a missing value are ignored. Missing values are always valid for the group and subgroup variable.

NAME='entry-name'

specifies the name of the GRSEG catalog entry and the name of the graphics output file, if one is created. The name can be up to 256 characters long, but the GRSEG name is truncated to eight characters. Uppercase characters are converted to lowercase, and periods are converted to underscores. The default name is GCHART. If the name duplicates an existing name, then SAS/GRAPH adds a number to the name to create a unique name-for example, GCHART1.

If the name specified is exactly eight characters long, then the last character of the image output filename is replaced with a number. For example, myimages is changed to myimage1.

See:About Filename Indexing

NOGROUPHEADING

suppresses the headings that are normally printed above each pie when you use the GROUP= option.

NOHEADING

suppresses the heading that is normally printed at the top of each page or display of output for all devices except Java and ActiveX. For the Java and ActiveX devices, NOHEADING is the default.

Restriction:Not supported by Java and ActiveX

Example:Subgrouping a Donut or Pie Chart

NOLEGEND

suppresses the legend that is automatically generated by the SUBGROUP= option. NOLEGEND is ignored if the SUBGROUP= option is not used.

OTHER=percent-of-total

collects all midpoints with chart statistic values less than or equal to percent-of-total into a generic midpoint named OTHER. The value of percent-of-total can be 0 to 100; the default value is 4. Therefore, any slice that represents 4% or less of the total is put in the OTHER category.

The OTHER slice is the last slice in the pie, regardless of the order of the slices. (In other words, it is the slice immediately before the starting slice.)

If only one midpoint falls into the OTHER category, its slice is displayed in its normal position in the pie and retains its original label. For example, suppose a pie has these slices and percent values: Coal 35%, Gas 15%, Hydro 5%, and Oil 45%. If you specify OTHER=5, Hydro remains the third slice instead of becoming the last slice.

Note:If you specify a small value for percent-of-total, the GCHART procedure might not be able to label all of the small slices.

OTHERCOLOR=color

specifies the color to use for the OTHER slice. If you omit the OTHERCOLOR= option, GCHART searches for a color specification in this order:

1. the CFILL= option
2. the COLOR= option in a PATTERN statement
3. the COLOR= option in a GOPTIONS statement
4. the color of the current style, or, the first color in the device's color list if the NOGSTYLE option is specified

Style reference:Color attribute of the GraphData1 to GraphDataN element, depending on the number of slices in the pie

See:For more information, see Controlling Slice Patterns and Colors.

OTHERLABEL='text-string'

specifies a text string up to 16 characters for the label for the OTHER slice. The default label is OTHER.

PERCENT=ARROW | INSIDE | NONE | OUTSIDE

prints the percentage represented by each slice using the specified labeling method. For a description of the option values, see Selecting and Positioning Slice Labels. By default, PERCENT=NONE (percentage is not displayed).

Whether the slice percent is displayed with or without decimal places, depends on the range of values across the chart. The only way to control the appearance of these values is to calculate the percentage with a DATA step. You can also calculate the percentage with a statistical procedure and use the resulting data set as input to the GCHART procedure. Assign the variable that contains the calculated percentages to the SUMVAR= option.

Grouping and Arranging Pie Charts

PLABEL=(text-options)

modifies the font, height, and color of the pie slice labels. Text-options can be one or more of the following:

• COLOR=color
• FONT=font
• HEIGHT=text-height <units>

Specify as many options as you want, but enclose them all in one set of parentheses, even if you specify only one option.

Style reference:Font Attributes of the GraphValueText element

Restriction:The Java and ActiveX devices do not support all of the text options

See:Text Description Suboptions for Donut for a complete description

RADIUS=value

specifies the radius of the pie and donut in their respective charts. Value is the pie radius in character cells.

SLICE=ARROW | INSIDE | NONE | OUTSIDE

controls the position and style of the slice name (midpoint value) for each slice.

Default:SLICE=OUTSIDE (the name is outside of the slice)

See:Selecting and Positioning Slice Labels for a description of the option values

Examples:Ordering and Labeling Slices in a Pie Chart

Grouping and Arranging Pie Charts

SUBGROUP=subgroup-variable

divides the chart into concentric rings according to the values of subgroup-variable. For DEVICE=JAVA, subgroups are implemented using drill-down functionality instead of concentric rings. In the resulting graph, you can select a pie slice to display subgroup information. Subgroup-variable can be either character or numeric and is always treated as a discrete variable.

The width of the rings, which is the same for each subgroup, is determined by the radius of the pie and the size of the donut hole, if any.

By default, the subgroup rings are ordered from the outside in, alphabetically (if character) or numerically (if numeric). If the JSTYLE option is also used, the order of the slices within the subgroups is determined by the outermost subgroup. There might be an inner subgroup that contains a value that is not in the outer subgroup. In this case the new slice for that value is placed either last or just before the "other" slice, if one is present. That slice order is continued for any remaining subgroups.

Each ring is labeled with its subgroup value; labels are placed to the right of the chart. If the GROUP= option is also used and if all groups contain the same subgroups, then only the first (upper left) chart on each page is labeled. If any group differs in the number of subgroups that it contains, then all charts are labeled.

By default the subgroups are outlined in the foreground color. To specify an outline color, use the COUTLINE= option.

The SUBGROUP= option automatically generates a legend for the midpoint values (not the subgroup values) and suppresses display of the chart statistic. By default the legend appears at the bottom of the chart. To modify the legend, assign a LEGEND definition. To suppress the legend, specify NOLEGEND. To display the chart statistic, use the VALUE= option.

Interaction:If EXPLODE is also used, it is ignored.

SUMVAR=numeric-variable

specifies a numeric variable for sum or mean calculations. The GCHART procedure calculates the sum or, if requested, the mean of numeric-variable for each midpoint. The resulting statistics are represented by the size of the slice and displayed beside of each slice.

When you use the SUMVAR= option, the TYPE= option must be either SUM or MEAN. With the SUMVAR= option, the default is TYPE=SUM.

Example:Specifying the Sum Statistic for a Pie Chart

TYPE=statistic

specifies the chart statistic.

• If the SUMVAR= option is not used, statistic can be one of the following:

  FREQ

  frequency (the default)

  PERCENT PCT

  percentage
• If SUMVAR= is used, statistic can be one of the following:

  SUM

  sum (the default)

  MEAN

  mean

Because you cannot use TYPE=FREQ or TYPE=PERCENT with the SUMVAR= option, you must use FREQ= to calculate percentages or frequencies based on a sum.

See:About Chart Statistics

Calculating Weighted Statistics

URL=character-variable

specifies a character variable whose values are URLs. The variable values are URLs for Web pages to display when the user clicks (drills down) on elements in the graph.

Restriction: This option affects graphics output that is created through the ODS HTML destination only.

Interaction:If you specify both the HTML= and the URL= options, then the URL= option is ignored

See:Overview of Enhancing Web Presentations

Example: GIF Output with Drill-Down Links

VALUE=ARROW | INSIDE | NONE | OUTSIDE

controls the position and style of the slice value (chart statistic) for each slice.

Default:VALUE=OUTSIDE (the value is outside the slice)

See:Selecting and Positioning Slice Labelsfor a description of the option values

WOUTLINE=slice-outline-width

specifies the width of the outline in pixels. WOUTLINE= affects both the slice and the subgroup outlines.
