How to display percentage value INSIDE the pie chart?

prateedshetty — Tue, 03 Jan 2023 20:44:41 GMT

I'm aware of -

<option name="charting.chart.showPercent">true</option>

But that's not what I'm looking for. I'm hoping to display the percentage value inside the slices of the pie chart. Also is there a way we can round off these percentage value?

There is no such option in splunk charting https://docs.splunk.com/Documentation/SplunkCloud/7.0.0/Viz/ChartConfigurationReference#Pie_charts

Also this is practically not possible in a pie chart... Each slice may of different size.. Writing text over that might be overlapped and confusing..

Only way to provide static text is without mouse hover is showing labels..

I tried adding the percentage to the label.. Seems no option is there...

Please try investigate in that angle

@paramagurukarthikeyan true this will add the % next to the label.

But here what is asked is different.
As you've mentioned initially, displaying the percentage inside the slice without hovering is not available.

He explained that thoroughly; not only is it not possible, even if it were possible, it is not practical and would be a terrible idea. He went above-and-beyond to give you a workable alternative.

Right; I just responded to the last point he has mentioned - "I tried adding the percentage to the label.. Seems no option is there..."
