Circular Gauge Chart
The Circular Gauge Chart is a dialless radial visualization designed to display one or multiple key numeric metrics as concentric progress arcs or rings. Each arc represents a measureโs value relative to its defined minimum and maximum, offering a quick, at-a-glance indication of performance or progress.
Unlike classic gauges with pointers or needles, this chart uses a filled radial arc or progress segment that visually encodes the current value as a proportion of its total range. Multiple measures can be displayed simultaneously as stacked or concentric arcs within a single gauge frame.
Circular Gauges are especially effective for tracking target-based KPIs, completion percentages, or real-time operational metrics on executive dashboards.
Key Features:
- Displays current value against a defined min/max as a filled progress arc.
- Supports multiple concentric arcs for comparing several KPIs in one visual.
- Allows customizable ranges, scale ticks, value labels, and color gradients.
- Ideal for real-time dashboards, scorecards, and progress tracking.
Typical use cases:
- Showing sales achievement % against monthly or quarterly targets.
- Monitoring system uptime or SLA adherence.
- Visualizing budget vs. utilization rates.
- Displaying order fulfillment progress.
- Representing metric completions for operational KPIs.
โ๏ธ Setup
- Drag the Circular Gauge Chart widget from the chart library onto your designer workspace.
- Select the chart.
- Go to the Widget Configuration tab in the Customize panel.
- Under the Configuration tab, select the Basic Configuration option to access the essential settings for the circular gauge chart.
- Select the Source which the chart will pull the data from the option.
- Map:
- Measure (Value) โ One or more numeric KPIs you want to visualize.
- Optionally add a Date field for time-based filtering.
- Enable Hide Zero Values to omit symbols with zero values if needed.
