I was able to get it pretty close without a custom visual:

 

 

It's just a donut with additional measure for the whitespace and some shapes that are grouped togther. You can resize it if you click once and hold shift (to keep it square).

Thanks!!! Very nice. Is it also posible to color the circle conditional on a target value. Above target green and below target orange. I managed that with another visual (meter) But there the colors can be set conditional on a masure. See images.

    I did try to get the donut to do conditional formatting, but I wasn't able to get it to do it. You can do conditional formatting on a column chart though. I like the circle graphic too but if you really need that color change, you may consider a similar set up with column or bar (sideways instead) chart:

     

     

    I've update the PBIX too: https://github.com/DataZoe/PBIX/blob/master/DonutShape.pbix

      jaspijk I saw another post from v-zhenbw-msft where they did conditional formatting on a line chart, and that would also work for your donut!

       

      You create a measure for each of the colors you want:

       

       

      Measure Green = if([Measure]>80,[Measure],blank())

Measure Yellow = if([Measure]>50&&[Measure]<=80,[Measure],blank())

Measure Red = if([Measure]<=50, [Measure],blank())

       

       

      then put them all in the donut values. Change the colors for each to the right color:
