Format Donut

The Format Donut dialog box is used to format the donuts of a donut chart. It appears when you right-click a donut chart and select Format Graph from the shortcut menu.

Donut

Specifies the properties of the donuts.

• Show Donut Name
  Specifies whether to show the names of the donuts.
• Donut Hole
  Specifies the percentage the hole's thickness will take from the total radius of the pie circle.

Static Data Label

Specifies the properties of the static data labels on the donuts.

• Show Static Data Label
  Specifies whether to show the static data labels on the donuts. Only when it is true can the following static data label related properties work.
• Style
  Specifies the display type for data values in the static data labels.
  • Value
    Shows the value for each donut section.
  • Category Name
    Shows the category name for each donut section.
  • Percent
    Shows the percentage of each donut section to the total.
  • Value and Percent
    Shows the value and the percentage for each donut section.
  • Category Name, Value
    Shows the category name and value for each donut section.
  • Category Name, Percent
    Shows the category name and percentage for each donut section.
  • Category Name, Value, Percent
    Shows the category name, value and percentage for each donut section.
• Position
  Specifies the position of the static data labels on the donuts.
  • Autofit
    If selected, the static data labels will be displayed automatically.
  • Sticker
    If selected, the static data labels will be displayed beside the donut sections.
  • Slim Leg
    If selected, the static data labels will be displayed beside the donut sections and pointed by thin lines.
    • Line Color
      Specifies the color of the thin lines that are used to point to the static data labels.
  • Best Fit
    If selected, the static data labels will be displayed at the best fit position automatically.
  • On Slices
    If selected, the static data labels will be displayed on the donut sections (slices).
• Auto Scale in Number
  Specifies whether to automatically scale the static data labels that are of the Number data type when the label values fall into the two ranges:
  • When 1000 <= value < 10^15, the following quantity unit symbols of the International System of Units are used to scale the values: K (10^3), M (10^6), G (10^9), and T (10^12).
  • When 0 < value < 0.001 or value >= 10^15, scientific notation is used to scale the values.

  By default it is set to auto which means that the setting follows that of the chart.

• Show Truncated Label
  Select this option to truncate labels that would go beyond the boundaries on a donut chart paper instead of them being hidden altogether - the default behavior. Logi Report displays an ellipsis (…) from the right side of the label, along with part of the name instead of the entire name, when you select this option. The truncated labels are also affected if you select the Position option of Best Fit (as seen above); where the label is cut off from the left or the right depending on the position of the label.

KPI Value

Specifies the properties for the KPI values of the donuts.

• Show KPI Value
  Specifies whether to show KPI value for each donut.
  • KPI Value
    Specifies the KPI value to display on each donut. By default, the total value of each donut will be used as the KPI value. If you want to customize the value, clear Auto and type a value in the text box, or select and select a formula or summary from the drop-down list to use its value as the KPI value.
  • Position
    Specifies the position of the KPI value at the center, top, bottom of each donut or customized which allows for setting the X and Y properties to change the position.

Graph Border

Specifies the properties for the border of the donuts.

• Show Border
  Specifies whether to show the border of the donuts. When it is selected, the other border properties will be enabled.
  • Line Style

• Show Category and Series
  Specifies whether to include the category and series values in the data marker hint.
• Auto Scale in Number
  Specifies whether to automatically scale the values displayed in the data marker hint that are of the Number data type when the values fall into the two ranges:
  • When 1000 <= value < 10^15, the following quantity unit symbols of the International System of Units are used to scale the values: K (10^3), M (10^6), G (10^9), and T (10^12).
  • When 0 < value < 0.001 or value >= 10^15, scientific notation is used to scale the values.

  By default it is set to auto which means that the setting follows that of the chart.
