Multiple Pie Chart - Spacing of pies

I'm having a difficult time making enough space between two pies in a Multiple Pie Chart. I have the labels/values on the sides and because of how close the two pies are together, the text overlap eachother from the different pies.

I'm trying to find a setting that lets me change the distance of them but I don't see anything. I just wanted to check with the forums to see if there is a built in way to change the spacing.

Thanks,

Joel
 
Finally figured out a way to make this look better. Go to Chart Options, and set Pies per Row to 2 (mine was set to 3 when I only had two pies). This freed up extra space to the right.

Also, tweaking the rotation really helps with label placement. If labels overlapped a little, rotating a bit fixed the problem.

Hope this helps someone ;-)
