    Hi alexyap,

     

    As far as I know that is not possible with the Aster plot visual (but maybe someone knows a workaround or a way ?!) Anyway perhaps this visual is something that you can use ?

    I have no experience with that visual but I read that it is meant for hierarchical data, and it looks like it might be usefull to your case.

Hi alexyap,

 

A visualisation I personally use alot is the drill down donut chart, in the begin you would see the different sectors and their percentages. And when you would for example click on financials, the chart drills down to the next level.

 

Here I have a screenshot of an example(note this one is boring since there isnt much data in the set): 

Begin viewDrilldown view of "kleding"

 I am not sure if this is 100% what you are looking for but I think you can use this for your needs.

 

The visual is a custom visual downloaded from here:

Hi Anonymous,

 

Thank you for the reply.

 

Yes. I'm aware about the Drill Down Donut chart. However, I'm looking for something like what I've attached; not having to click to drill down. You can see at one glance within the whole pie of the main category and sub-category.

 

By any chance do you know if the Aster plot able to achieve that? Because I tried and doesn't seem to work so I'm not sure if I'm doing the right way or is the limitation of the plot.

 

 

Regards,

Alex
