I've been spending (lots of) time trying to figure out how to explode/split a Pie Chart within Google Sheets / (eg. Using the slices setoption in Google Apps Script) http://fiddle.jshell.net/6d5fLwnm/4/ This works outside google sheets using Google Visualisation
e.g. PieChart .setOption ('slices', Value) e.g. {3: {offset : 0.3};
But this method of the Google Chart Builder/Embedding is not working AT ALL in my "google sheet assigned script" (see below for code)
Any ideas/experience on that ? Is this deprecated somehow ? (other .setOption methods works : Colors for example)
My sheet has a 3 columns (therefore selecting B2:C5), 4 lines, simplified for testing purposes. Here is the code :
function GeneratePie() {
var sheet = SpreadsheetApp.getActiveSheet();
var range = sheet.getRange("B2:C5");
var pie = sheet.newChart()
.setChartType(Charts.ChartType.PIE)
.addRange(range)
.setPosition(5,6 ,5, 5)
//.setTitle("This is the title of my chart")
.setOption('slices', {
0: {offset: 0.05},
1: {offset: 0.15},
2: {offset: 0.25},
3: {offset: 0.35}
})
.setOption('title', 'Updated!');
// another try
slicces[0] = '{offset: 0.2}';
pie.setOption('slices', slicces); // wrapper is the ChartWrapper */
pie.setOption('title', 'Updated2!');
sheet.insertChart(pie.build());
var chart = sheet.getCharts()[1];
chart = chart.modify()
.setOption('title', 'Updated ZZZZZZZ!')
.setPosition(5,6,6,6)
.setOption('slices', {
0: {offset: 0.05},
1: {offset: 0.15},
2: {offset: 0.25},
3: {offset: 0.35}
})
.build();
sheet.updateChart(chart);
}
All comments are welcome...
Thank you !

The codes from Visualization: Pie Chart of Google Charts API are not fully interchangeable with that of App Script version yet. So I don't think it's supported as of now in Apps Script.
reverseCategories() is the Apps Script method related to slicing which isn't much.
