Kendo Pie/Donut Chart Types don't support Aggregate

[Ben]

Please see plunker below.  Column chart type aggregates data as expected using the sum aggregate.  Pie and Donut do not aggregate as expected.

Thanks for your help in determining if this is a bug or as expected.

Hi Ben,

Thank you for the provided sample plunker.

The implementation designs of the bar and pie/donut charts differ. This is why their functionality for the aggregate input property is also different. Indeed, our documentation is misleading in this matter and we will update it properly.

Let me know in case I can provide any further assistance for this case.

Hi Svetlin, 

 

is this still happening?

I need to add some donut charts to display tasks, grouping by priority and then counting them in the series. What could be an approach?

Best,

Hi Nazareth,

The aggregate option is supported for categorical chart axis only. An update of documentation has been recently merged to address that, but it will take some time for it to go live.

As for the second question, it doesn't look related to the initial forum post. Thus please open a new thread in order to keep the matters separate and keep a clean history of the forum. As a brief suggestion I could recommend implementing some sort of a drill down effect, where clicking one series will reload the Chart data with information about the specific series that has already been clicked.

Hi Svet, 

Thank you for your response is very helpful. I will explore the drill-down effect, and sure I will keep posting based on your advice. 

Thanks

Best,
