Show unused space #16

Hi,

DaisyDisk on the mac shows the empty space as part of the "wheel", I was wondering if there was an option to have SquirrelDisk do this too? For example:

So far all the equivalent apps for Windows that I have found close the "unused" gap to give a completed circle but that removes the essence of a pie chart where you can get a feel for a percentage. In the above image I can see that Lime takes up half my disk and yellow is a quarter but if that gap was closed I'd have to use the legend insead.

Here's what SquirrelDisk shows for the same drive: Screenshot 2023-07-04 at 10 14 28

SD's magenta is DD's lime, SD's orange is DD's fuchsia. WIth DD you can see that lime is half the disk but with SD it looks like 2 thirds.

Does all this make sense - for me the point of the wheel shape is so you can see at a glance what percentage is used for what top level folders. Once you click into a folder the circle closes as that folder becomes 100% of its contents.

Does that make sense? thanks, kris
