It's automatic in Win32 with the native pie chart control
You can ask on Advanced Win32 api newsgroup
news://comp.os.ms-windows.programmer.win32
where it has often been discussed..

It's bullshit (and visually horrible)
As it has been said, just use the pie chart control. It has been
created for that
(a) what is bullshit about it? It shows some simple code for drawing a pie chart
(b) what is visually horrible about it?
I don't mind founded criticism, but you seem to have no basis for comment here. It is raw
Win32 API, but it was written for a raw Win32 API book.
Since you obviously know how to improve this code by making it non-bullshit, and by making
it conform to your version of beauty, please demonstrate the problems. Show better code.
Yes, it uses absolute integers, and that was the point of the exercise (it comes out
differently on different displays, but the goal was to relate actual coordinates to what
is going on).
This does not change the fact that if there is a pie-chart control, it is certainly a
better choice, but that does not change the fact that you have claimed my code is
incorrect and unaesthetic. Please demonstrate how to draw a pie chart, using raw Win32,
which comes out conforming to your notion of what such code should look like (I already
indicated that trivial translation was required to make this consistent with MFC).
Or please reference your book where you show how to do this correctly, or your Web site,
where you show how to do this correctly, and I will go read them. I'm always willing to
learn.

It looks great but the price is around $700. If you ask me it is worth the
professional look.
In the past they had a chart designer that you could use to visually create
your chart, and have it spit out the code for it, it worked great for every
language execpt c++, it caused alot of compiler errors that had to be fixed.
I don't know if they have that fixed yet or not, but even then it helped out
alot.
Here is their pie chart from their gallery:

Right.
And for the 3D, you just have to set the 3DView property
I don't think the guy knows anything about computers other than maybe how to
get football stats, and watch some porn.
I guess they just want to get a raise out of people!

That explains the ratings that Joe has been getting over last few
days. Someone is exlcusively tagging Joe's messages.

I'm cursed at the moment with a contract that requires me to "interact" with
a bored DBA also stricken with a prima donna complex. I was angry at first,
now I just feel pity.

I go thru Google groups. I can see the ratings there. Try that out.

Yuuuch! :-)

Yep, I see ratings in profiles, but I don't see them on a post-by-post
level. No worry, I was just curious.
Only the posts that have ratings will show it. It could be that you
have to login to see them I dont know for sure. For some reason I
couldnt rate a post. It must be me.

This is essentially trivial. For example, see my essay on screen capture on my MVP Tips
site. Or just write the bitmap to a DC. Converting the DC to a file is Second Semester
Freshman Programming, and there are tons of articles on the Web on how to do it. Check
out my GradientFill Explorer as well, which already does this. Note that I learned how to
do this with a simple google search for some code.
