Is it just me or this pie chart is extraordinarily terrible because the legend is not in order and there's just too many similar colors? And I'm not even colorblind.
- tinus_hn 7y agoIt’s terrible because there are just too many colors. There is no focus so the graph explains nothing.
- titzer 7y agoThis would be easily fixable. 1. Sort quantities in both the list and the chart by descending proportion. 2. Assign colors systematically, e.g a spectrum from red to purple, or shades of primary colors (bonus if you pick better colors for certain types of color blindness).
- masklinn 7y agoThe legend seems to be in order for me, the top-to-bottom legend matches the clockwise progression of the slices (from the 12:00 position). The Color similarity is problematic indeed though.
- jononor 7y agoA stacked barplot would have been better. And then annotations or another stacked barplot next to it to illustrate the groups the author wanted to talk about. Piecharts are generally best avoided...
