Exploding out slices of a Pie Chart in Plotly : Pythoneo

Let’s see how Exploding out slices of a Pie Chart in Plotly works.

To see how to explode slice out I need example pie chart. I imported Plotly Express and use tips data which is defined in Plotly as example data set to work on.

This is a code of my example pie chart.

import plotly.express as px

data_frame = px.data.tips()
pie_chart = px.pie(data_frame,
             names='day',
             values='tip',
             title='Tips values by day',
             template='gridon')
pie_chart.show()

To explode out slices of my pie chart I need to update traces and define pull parameter. The higher the pull the more slices are exploded out from the pie chart.

pie_chart.update_traces(pull=0.1)

There is also a possibility to explode only one slice of a pie. To explode only one of them you need to create a list of pull parameter.

pie_chart.update_traces(pull=[0.1, 0, 0, 0])
