highcharts: pie chart - reduce number of slice

Question

I have a pie chart with so many slices that is very hard to read it. Is it possible to reduce the number of slices, by grouping the smallest in just one named "others", or hiding them?

Answer 1

No. This behaviour is not built into highcharts.

The easiest way to achieve this is by manually changing the data you pass to the chart. Ie if you do the grouping into a category 'Others' before you pass the data and render the chart
