Sunburst EChart
A Sunburst EChart is also known as a multi-level pie chart. This chart is ideal for visualizing multi-level hierarchical data, depicted by concentric circles. The circle in the center represents the root node, surrounded by the rings representing different levels of hierarchy. Rings are divided based on their relationship with the parent slice, with each of them either divided equally or proportionally to a value. This type of chart helps users in breaking down data into different entities for identifying and visualizing multilevel parent-child relationships in different business scenarios quickly and efficiently.
Create a Sunburst EChart
To create a Sunburst EChart in Wyn Enterprise, navigate to the dashboard designer page and follow the instructions below,
On the left-side menu, select the Custom Visualization icon to open the ECharts menu.
Find the Sunburst EChart from the menu and drag and drop it onto the dashboard designer.
Your initial EChart should look like the image below.
On the right-hand side, you will find that this action has opened the Data Binding tab. Select Add to select the data you want to bind to your EChart.
Upon selecting the data you want to use in the menu, drag and drop the values onto the binding slots for Values and Details. You are going to want to drop your quantitative data into the Values slot and your categorical data into the Details slot.
One or more items need to be added to the Details slot. When more than one is added, the second needs to be a subcategory of the first, and so on. As you can see in the image above, the sample data RetailDataset has been used, with Revenue on the Values slot and Product line and Product category on the Details slot.
Your EChart should look something like this.
If you want to display the percentages and the product line and category names on the EChart, on the right-hand side menu, click the gear icon
to open the Inspector tab.
Scroll down to the Data Labels properties section and enable the Show Data Label, Value, and the Details properties.
To display your values as percentages, you can select Detail Value/Percentage from the dropdown menu of the Display Pattern property. Again, this is under the Data Labels properties.
Click Preview on the top ribbon.
Now you have your Sunburst EChart.
