Pie chart won't work in Excel 2013

[taylorren]

Can you check the pie chart is working in Excel 2013? The example (33chartcreate-pie.xlsx) and my code does not seem to work. The XLSX file always opened with an error and if I choose to continue to open the XLSX, the drawing will be deleted from the XLSX file.

For urgent review, please.

The error message dialog when trying to open an Excel 2013 file with a pie chart. Basically it says:

Some contents in output.xlsx are errorneous. Shall we try to recover? If you trust this file, click "Yes". 

After clicking YES, a error log will be filed, saying "Component /xl/drawings/drawing1.xml", which is the pie chart, has been deleted from the file. The rest of the file can still be opened.

Did a search in Google. Possible duplicate issue as the link above.

@taylorren, in case you were still wondering (I was), it is a bug in the example code. You should not use PHPExcel_Chart_DataSeries::GROUPING_STANDARD for pie charts, see #435.

Can anyone confirm that the bugfix did work? I just tried downloading the version release 1.8.1 but it doesn't seem working. Thanks in advance.
