Power BI – Set a chart with a slicer

In the previous lessons, we saw how to create a slicer and select multiple values. Let us now set a chart like a Donut Chart with a slicer. A Donut Chart is also known as a doughnut chart.

What is a Donut Chart

We will create a Donut Chart. A Donut Chart is a pie chart that looks like a Donut.

A donut chart, also known as a doughnut chart, is a circular graphical representation of data that displays how different categories contribute to a whole.

Features of Donut Charts

  1. Circular shape with a hollow center (resembling a doughnut)
  2. Segments or slices represent categories
  3. The size of each slice proportional to its value
  4. The total of all slices equals 100% (or the whole)

Types of Donut Charts

  1. Simple Donut Chart: Displays a single series of data.
  2. Multi-level Donut Chart: Displays hierarchical data with nested categories.
  3. Interactive Donut Chart: Allows users to hover, click, or drill down for more information.
  4. 3D Donut Chart: Displays data in a three-dimensional format.

We will create a Donut Chart now with a slicer. Go to the Visualizations and drag a Donut Chart. Select the columns Sum of Profit and State. This will display the Sum of Profit by State:
