Frequently Asked Questions

What's the difference between a pie chart and a donut chart?

A donut chart is a pie chart with a hollow center. The hole creates space for a total number or label, making it useful for dashboards. Both show parts of a whole — the choice is mostly aesthetic. Read /blog/how-to-make-pie-chart for a detailed comparison.

Can I put a label in the center of the donut?

Yes. Click the center of the ring to type a total value or a custom label — it updates live as part of the chart.

How many segments should a donut chart have?

3 to 6 segments is ideal. More than 7 makes thin slices hard to read. If you have many small categories, group them into an "Other" segment — small slices automatically get a leader-line callout so their label never gets lost.

Can I use this in a larger infographic?

Yes — drag the donut chart onto the canvas alongside stat cards, bar charts, timelines, and any of our 60+ widget types. Try the full /editor.
