Doughnut Series

Doughnut Series is the hollow-center version of Pie Series. The center area can show a total value, a percentage, or a heading; preferred when a single KPI emphasis is needed.

Prerequisite

This chart type can only be selected in step 2 of the Cartography Widget Wizard. If you have not started widget creation, start the wizard first; an appropriate Compass record is also required.

Center Text Text to display in the ring center
Explode Pull a slice outward Off
Label Visibility Inside / Outside / Hidden Outside

Inner Radius

0.4 narrow ring (close to filled), 0.7 wide ring (more space in the center). Use 0.65+ if the center text is long.

  • Doughnut is very effective for only 2 slices (target / remaining): 74% complete + grey remainder.
  • If center text is long, decrease the font size or use a short format string.
