# Pie Graph
**Pie Graph** widget can be used to present proportional data or relative data in a chart.
Let's explore the following Use Case for configuring the Pie Graph widget!
| **Use Case** User persona: Administrator | **Solution** |
| --- | --- |
| Sandra wants a graphical widget where she can analyze the percentage of open Incidents by status for the Incident Management team. This should give her a view to determine the open incidents where her inputs are required. | Sam can select the **Pie Graph** widget and configure it as an **I****nternal** widget under the settings option. He can configure it to display the count of open incidents sliced to status, giving Sandra the view of new incidents versus incidents in progress versus incidents awaiting user information. |
Refer to the GIF for more details about the Use Case!

Field Description
| **Properties** |
| --- |
| Widget Type | Select **Graphical widget** from the drop-down list. |
| Widget Header | Type a name to widget according to the Data to be configured in the widget title text box. Here widget is tilted as **Open Incidents by Status**.Figure: Widget Header |

For more information, refer to [Graphical widget](https://help.symphonysummitai.com/summit-platform/docs/line-graph-widget)'s legend position description. |
| Slice | Select **Show** **Percent** or **Show** **Value** or **Show Label** to display values on the chart. Here **Show Label** is selected as display values for the chart. Figure: Slice Show by label in a pie chart involves visually separating or highlighting specific segments of the chart based on their corresponding labels or categories. This method allows you to draw attention to particular data points or categories within the dataset. See the screenshot below. Figure: Show label Showing by value involves dividing the pie chart into segments based on the actual numerical values of the data points. Each segment represents a specific value or category, and the size of the segment corresponds to the magnitude of that value relative to the total. The screenshot below displays the pie chart with slice by value. Figure: Show Value Show percentage involves dividing the pie chart into segments based on the proportions or percentages of the total represented by each data point. Each segment represents a percentage of the whole, rather than an absolute value.  Figure: Show percentage |
| Slice Threshold in Percentage | Select the **Slice Threshold** percentage from the drop-down list. Here **Slice Threshold** is selected as 0 from the drop-down list. It determines the minimum percentage of the total value a slice in a pie chart must represent to be visually separated or emphasized from the rest of the chart. Figure: Slice Threshold |
