Hi  @Anonymous ,

 

1. Please make sure the chart displays fine before exporting in Power bi service. 

2. Check if pie chart in other reports have the same issue. 

3. Pages in PowerPoint are always created in the standard 9:16 size, regardless of the original page sizes or dimensions in the Power BI report. Please set the page size as this standard size then test again. 

 

Please note that there is a limitation when exporting to PPT:

Background images are cropped with the chart's bounding area. We recommend that you remove background images before you export to PowerPoint.

thanks, my answers in bold.

 

1. Please make sure the chart displays fine before exporting in Power bi service. 

The charts are fine on desktop before exporting.

2. Check if pie chart in other reports have the same issue. 

Pie charts floating on table visual are used only in this report.

3. Pages in PowerPoint are always created in the standard 9:16 size, regardless of the original page sizes or dimensions in the Power BI report. Please set the page size as this standard size then test again. 

I used the standard size 9:16.

 

Please note that there is a limitation when exporting to PPT:

Background images are cropped with the chart's bounding area. We recommend that you remove background images before you export to PowerPoint.

 

yes. i know that. but in this case there aren't backround images.
