How to add a donut pie chart in Splunk Dashboard?

I am using a normal pie chart to visualise data on Splunk Dashboard. I would really love if I can add a donut pie chart instead of normal pie chart. Is it possible to add it on Splunk?

With the standard Splunk pie chart, you can't do donut pie, but @chrisyounger has developed a number of fantastic visualisations, which will probably give you what you want. You can see his apps on Splunkbase here

Including 

Semi-circle donut viz - https://splunkbase.splunk.com/app/4378

Number display - https://splunkbase.splunk.com/app/4537

Sunburst - https://splunkbase.splunk.com/app/4550

Circle pack - https://splunkbase.splunk.com/app/4574

One of these will no doubt give you what you want

Note that it's also possible to use tokens in the settings for those visualisations, based on your earlier posts.

Thanks a lot @bowesmana for the quick response! Looks like @chrisyounger has done some amazing development for use. 
Since I have never added any add on top of standard Splunk xml, can you give some pointers on how to use these apps with Splunk dashboard?

You just install the app and then in the dashboard edit UI mode, you just select the 'select visualisation' button in the UI

In the Format menu for Chris' apps, he provides a great Help page with plenty of examples of how to use the visualisations.
