Common Questions About Radial Charts

What is a Radial Chart?+

A Radial Chart (or Radial Bar Chart) is a visual tool used to display data on a circular scale. It's similar to a bar chart but plotted on a polar coordinate system, making it look like a series of concentric rings. Each ring represents a specific category, and the length of the ring corresponds to its value, typically as a percentage of a total.

These charts are excellent for visualizing comparisons between different categories or tracking progress towards a goal (like "85% Complete"). They are compact, visually striking, and great for dashboards.

When should I use a Radial Bar Chart?+
  • Progress Tracking: Perfect for showing completion percentages of multiple tasks or projects.
  • Performance Metrics: Compare scores or ratings (e.g., Customer Satisfaction, Efficiency) across different departments.
  • Inventory Levels: visualize stock levels relative to capacity.
  • Apple Watch Activity Rings: A famous example of radial charts used to track daily movement goals.
How is this different from a Pie Chart?+

A Pie Chart divides a single whole into proportional slices. A Radial Bar Chart displays multiple independent values (usually percentages) as separate rings, making it better for comparing different metrics that don't necessarily add up to 100% of a meaningful whole.

Can I use values greater than 100?+

Ideally, Radial Bar Charts work best with percentages (0-100). If you have values like 200 or 500, it's best to normalize them to a percentage scale or use a standard Bar Chart instead.

How do I import Excel data?+

Upload an .xlsx or .csv file with two columns: the first for Labels (e.g., "Sales", "Marketing") and the second for Values (numbers between 0-100).

Is my data secure?+

Yes. All chart generation happens directly in your browser. No data is ever uploaded to our servers.
