For my pie chart, I see that I can set startAngle, but I don't see where I can set the direction of the pie pieces. I would like pie pieces to be added counter-clockwise. Currently, they are added clockwise.
FYI, I am also setting a sort on the data, so the largest is always first. Right now the largest is taking the 12-3pm pie piece, the second largest taking 3-5pm, etc. I want them to go 12-9pm, 9-7pm.
Thanks,

I guess one solution would be to reverse the sort.

I would prefer not to reverse the sort since the legend (I currently have it on the left) will still show from top to bottom the pieces as they appear on the chart in a clockwise fashion.

The other issue with reversing the sort and reversing the legend order is that when there are varying numbers of pie slices, the largest piece will not always have the same color - unless we do calculations in dataBound to alter the colors array which would be a major pain.

Kendo UI Pie Chart supports only clockwise direction. You could submit this idea as a feature request at our UserVoice portal - this way the community would be able to evaluate it and if the suggestion gains popularity we will consider its implementation for future releases.
Meanwhile as a workaround I could suggest to change the sort direction and use the legend.reverse option to reverse the legend items.
