This example demonstrates creating concentric donut chart by merging two donuts of different radii.
The chart in this example is created as two separate
PieChart objects. The first PieChart represents the outer donut chart and the overall structure of the chart (such as the legend box, chart title, etc). The second PieChart has a
Transparent background and represents the inner donut chart. The two charts are merged together by using the
DrawArea.merge method.
