Donut Chart Hole Value

[John Thompson]

I have an application that I need to place the total of the values in the center hole of a donut chart.  For instance, if I had 5 series values of 1, 2, 3, 4 and 5 then the hole in the center of the donut would contain 15.  Of course, I would need to be able to control the font and format of the number.

Is this possible?

Regards,

Jay

Hi Jay,

I am afraid what you are trying to achieve is not supported. Such functionality is not in our immediate plans, however we may consider it for future releases. If you wish you can create an entry at our UserVoice page - the community interest in the idea will influence on our decision towards implementing it.

I hate to thread resurrect but this is exactly what I'm trying to accomplish.  Has this been added by chance?

Hello Devin,

You could get this outcome using additional HTML / CSS. For your convenience here is a dojo example.

That'll work, it'd be nice for native support as it's a pretty common use-case, but this will work.

 For anyone else that's going to do this I recommend adding the css class

pointer-events: none​

on the box that's in the center so you don't disrupt the mouse-over events of the chart at all.
