## SetPieStartAngle

SetPieStartAngle — Set the starting angle for pie chart segments

## Synopsis

    $plot->SetPieStartAngle($angle)

## Description

`SetPieStartAngle` sets the starting angle for the first segment in a pie chart.

## Parameters

`$angle`

  Starting angle in degrees

## Notes

The default starting angle is 0 degrees. This results in the first pie segment starting on the right-pointing horizontal radius ("East"), and extending upwards in a counter-clockwise direction (by default).

See also SetPieDirection which is used to set the direction for pie chart segments - clockwise or counter-clockwise.

## Example

See Section 5.47, “Example - Pie Chart Start Angle and Direction”.

## History

This function was added in PHPlot-6.0.0. Before that, the first segment of a pie chart always started at 0 degrees.
