Hi Guys,

Unfortunately the pie image work around will not cope with explosions as
it uses a dummy series with a single point to hold the complete image.

I think I would switch to using a bank note and bar chart.

Cheers
Andy

I tried in vain to create an (exploded) pie chart where a background
picture would be exploded into slices e.g a 'euro coin face '
(http://www.ecb.int/bc/coins/common/html/index.en.html) exploded into
slices representing some percentage values.

When I try to insert a picture, the entire coin face is inserted in all
slices, resulting in ugly skewed pictures.

PS: if that is solvable, I ultimately wanted a pie-of-pie chart. :)
