Report builder donut chart overlapping

Hello everybody! 

 

I have a problem with donut charts in the report builder: when one value is predominant, all the other values overlap, as it can be noticed in the right graph of the picture.

Is there a way to avoid it?

thank you in advance!

 

Cheers, Martin

Hi, @emme1995 

As you said, you have a large number in your chart, so the other numbers only occupy a small space, which is normal.
You can use data labels outside the chart by placing the label outside the chart with the leader pointing to the corresponding segment.

Merge small values to group smaller values into the Other category to reduce confusion.
To improve readability, consider using a bar chart, which can handle a variety of values more efficiently
