The following example demonstrates how to create a 2D Pie chart.
For this, it's necessary to create a ChartControl, choose a SimpleDiagram2Dobject as its diagram and put PieSeries2D into its Series collection. Each point of a pie series should contain an argument and value, and their data type is automatically determined by the chart.
Pie appearance is defined by its Model property and in this sample it's set to the built-in GlarePie2DModel model. To specify the appearance and format of data point labels, adjust settings of the PointOptionsobject. In addition, it's possible to provide a custom appearance for legend items via the LegendPointOptions property.

Please don't give examples without explanation of their meaning.
If we knew the meaning we would not need an example anyhow.
There are many devexpress short examples within the documentation pages without any comment on their meaning.
My specific qestion in this case is:
What's the meaning of: Pattern="{}{A}: {V}"
especially the letters 'A' and 'V' and the numerous braces?
