Description
sp.pie3d() is the 3D twin of sp.pie(): all 11 pie variants share the same 3D form, selected with the same variant keyword and fed with the same slices. A pie wedge has no honest cuboid shape, so every slice instead becomes a column around a ring, height following its value. semi sweeps that ring over a half-circle instead of a full one; nested adds a second, larger ring from secondary_values.
Variants
| Variant | Aliases | Uses | 3D form |
|---|---|---|---|
basic | pie | labels, values | One column per slice around a ring, height following its value. |
donut | ring, hole | labels, values | The same ring as basic; the 2D chart’s hollow-center styling has no separate 3D form. |
exploded | pulled, pull, explode | labels, values | The same ring as basic; the 2D chart’s pulled-out slice styling has no separate 3D form. |
subplots | grid, facet, multi | labels, values | The same ring as basic; the 2D chart’s small-multiples layout has no separate 3D form. |
proportional | scaled, scalegroup, area_proportional | labels, values | The same ring as basic; the 2D chart’s area-scaled subplot sizing has no separate 3D form. |
semi | semicircle, half, halfpie, half_pie | labels, values | The same columns, swept over a half-circle instead of a full ring. |
kpi | center, centered, indicator, donut_kpi, metric | labels, values | The same ring as basic; the 2D chart’s centered indicator has no separate 3D form. |
nested | concentric, rings, double_ring, multi_ring | labels, values, secondary_values | The same ring as basic plus a second, larger ring from secondary_values. |
pattern | patterned, textured, hatched | labels, values | The same ring as basic; the 2D chart’s hatched-fill styling has no separate 3D form. |
nightingale | rose, coxcomb, polar_area | labels, values | The same ring as basic; the 2D chart’s radius-by-value coxcomb styling has no separate 3D form. |
waffle | square, pie_square, grid_pie, squarepie | labels, values | The same ring as basic; the 2D chart’s square-grid styling has no separate 3D form. |
Data
labels names each slice and values sets its column height; nested additionally reads secondary_values for its outer ring.
3D planes
The viewpoint is independent from the variant: orientation3d picks the initial camera plane and applies to every variant; the view always stays draggable.
orientation3d="iso" — Isometric three-quarter view (default).orientation3d="horizontal" — Side-on view, almost at floor level.orientation3d="vertical" — Top-down view from above.orientation3d="front" — Front elevation, nearly flat.3D scenes
scene swaps the environment the columns are drawn in and applies to every variant and every plane.
scene="default" — Each series keeps its own categorical palette color, rendered as shaded 3D bars on a flat grid.scene="terrain" — The data is resampled onto a dense grid and rendered as hundreds of thin colormap-colored columns, forming a continuous mountain-of-bars terrain.scene="tower" — The data is resampled onto a dense field of round skyscraper-like towers instead of boxes, for a city-skyline reading of magnitude.scene="radial" — The data is resampled onto a dense polar grid of rings and wedges radiating from the center, like a 3D radar/sonar sweep of the value field.scene="podium" — The data is resampled onto a dense grid and quantized into stepped terrace levels, like a rice-terrace contour map, to read value bands at a glance.Themes
theme restyles the whole canvas (colour grade and glow) and applies to every variant, scene and plane.

The 3D zone (floor, walls, axes and camera) scales to the elements: its length, width and height follow the extents of the drawn blocks, a minimum floor depth keeps single rows readable, wide scenes are drawn flatter and the camera frames the whole box. The axis ticks read the real data range. Pass zone=[x, y, z] to force the proportions of the box instead; the longest side is normalised to 1.
