Exploding all wedges in a Flex PieChart control using the explodeRadius property

The following example shows how you can explode all wedges in a PieChart at once by using the explodeRadius property, as seen in the following snippet:

<mx:PieChart dataProvider="{dp.product}" height="100%" width="100%">
    <mx:series>
        <mx:PieSeries field="@data" labelPosition="callout">
            <mx:explodeRadius>0.2</mx:explodeRadius>
            <mx:filters>
                <mx:Array />
            </mx:filters>
        </mx:PieSeries>
    </mx:series>
</mx:PieChart>

If you want to explode individual wedges, simply use the perWedgeExplodeRadius property.
