Animated Time-Line Pie Chart
Animated timelines are a great type of infographic. This demo shows how to create a pie chart cycling through datasets from a timeline.
Key implementation details
The only thing we need to do manually is set new data items in a loop. And then iterated to the next year. By using the Animated theme you get these nice transitions absolutely free and code-free.
