This is a long standing bug, that really bugged me. Now it's fixed, and there's a new
spacingModeoption to support it and the old behavior. Choose betweenangular,proportionalandparallel. You most likely wantparallel.For full pie charts or polarArea - parallel spacing means that the center dot for each arc has to move a little, as you cannot space it on the center... So for some charts this may look weird. Hence the selection between modes.
proportionalis the default method for polarArea which does not change the existing behavior - spacing is calculated based on the size of the arc, to look good enough on the chart.angularis now the default method for doughnuts and pies - fixing the old bug of different spacing for each slice, but still having an angle there.parallelis the completely flat spacing - with automatically adjusting innerRadius if needed.This closes #10059.
