How to Create Segmented Donut Charts in Tableau for Financial KPIs
Learn how to create segmented donut charts in Tableau using an image overlay technique. First, create an image with the desired segment layout using a tool like Canva. In Tableau, enter ‘0’ twice in the columns to generate two marks. Use the first mark to create a pie chart in the background, and the second mark to apply the segmented donut image as a shape. This allows you to use metrics or categories in the rows to build multiple segmented donut charts with different colors in a single worksheet. This method is ideal for displaying financial KPIs such as Gross Profit Margin (GPM), Return on Equity (ROE), and others, providing a clean, visually appealing way to show segmented performance metrics.
