Sunburst Chart

According to all other charts, the Sunburst Chart is out of the ordinary. It is ideal for visualizing complex relationships within Status Groups and deeply exploring and comparing proportions within hierarchical data.

Enhanced Chart Options for Better Analysis and Decision-Making

To help you analyze data and make informed decisions, we’ve provided additional chart customization options. These features are accessible via the Chart Options button in the top-right corner of the chart. Here's how you can use them:

1. Show Percentages as Labels

  • What it does: Converts the data labels on your chart into percentages, making it easier to compare proportions.

  • Tooltips Update: When this option is enabled, the tooltips will also display percentage values.

  • Pro Tip: Use this feature to quickly identify trends or distributions within your dataset at a glance.

2. Trendline

  • What it does: Adds a trendline to show a linear progression on column charts only.

  • Additional Features:

    • The trendline is dynamically updated whenever the chart data changes.

    • Displays the trendline's formula directly on the chart for deeper insights.

  • Pro Tip: Use the trendline to predict future performance or identify underlying trends in your data.

3. Hide Labels

  • What it does: Hides the data labels on the chart for a cleaner, uncluttered view.

  • Tooltips Behavior: Hovering over data points will display tooltips based on your settings (values or percentages), even when labels are hidden.

  • Pro Tip: Enable this option when presenting high-level data to stakeholders who don’t need to see every detail immediately.
