Introduction

The Donut Chart in AppAlloy is a variation of the Pie Chart that features a hole in the center, allowing for a more aesthetically pleasing and flexible visualization.

It effectively displays data as proportional segments of a whole while leaving space in the center for additional information or visual appeal.

This chart is particularly useful for showing data distribution and emphasizing the relative sizes of categories.

Suitable Use Cases:

  • Expense Distribution: Visualize how different expense categories contribute to the total budget, with the center space available for key insights or additional context.

  • Market Share: Display market share distribution among various products or companies, highlighting their relative contributions.

  • Survey Results: Present categorical survey results, showcasing the proportion of each response with room for annotations or highlights.

  • Project Allocation: Illustrate how resources or efforts are allocated across different projects or tasks, with space to include a project logo or summary in the center.

The caption offers additional context or explanatory text for the chart. It may include information about the data source or key insights from the chart.

Data

Define the source and specifics of the data used for the chart. For example, "from table 'Order List', show the number of orders by Segment."

Specify the data criteria to ensure the chart accurately reflects the desired information, making it relevant and precise. We also highly recommend to use the term of column headings for the prompt.

  • Value Label Prefix: Add text before the value in the label, if necessary (e.g., "$" for currency).

  • Value Label Suffix: Add text after the value in the label, if necessary (e.g., "%" for percentages).
