The donut half graphic offers a dynamic appearance and can be rendered at 180 or 290 degrees. Its fluid shape captures attention while blending in with other graphics.
It provides a clear and intuitive visualization of performance metrics so that you cn quickly assess values within specified limits. You can set limits for ranges, which automatically adjusts the text and dial color. This improves clarity and ensures effective monitoring.
Examples
The following donut half graphic has its SelectAngle property set to Angle180.

The following donut half graphic has its SelectAngle property set to Angle290.

The following donut half graphic has its SelectAngle property set to Angle90.

Configure the graphic
Configure the following properties for this graphic:
-
Follow asset context - The asset context affects properties that are configured to display asset stream ref data and asset metadata. When this is enabled:
-
If this content is in a visualization, it uses the visualization's asset context. For details, see Create a new visualization.
-
If this content is in an experience, it uses the navigation item's asset reference. For details, see the Add content to a pane section in Add content to panes in your navigation items.
-
-
Follow time context - When this is enabled:
-
If this content is in a visualization, it uses the visualization's time context as the time range for the data it displays. For details, see Create a new visualization.
-
If this content is in an experience, it uses the time selected in the time selector content item as the time range for the data it displays. For details, see Add a time selector.
-
-
Time - If Follow time context is disabled, select the time range for the data displayed in the content item.
-
In the Options section:
-
SelectAngle - The angle of the arc in the graphic.
Set this to 290°, 180°, or 90°.
-
