Convert Bar Charts into Radial Bars

In some cases, radial bar charts can look nicer and be easier to understand than regular bar charts. Since Sisense doesn’t have a built-in widget for radial bar charts, here is a script that converts standard bar charts into radial ones. This guide will demonstrate how to use the script to make data visuals more interesting and clear. 

 

Steps:

  1. Create a bar chart. It can be Classic, Stacked or stacked 100.

  2. Add below widget script and save.

  3. Refresh the widget

 

widget.on('processresult', function(se, args){	
    args.result.chart.polar = true

	args.result.pane = {
        size: '80%',
        innerSize: '20%',
        endAngle: 270
    }

});

    Great script!
    You can also use the "startAngle" in case you wish to adjust the orientation! (Tested on 2023.11)

    eg.
    widget.on('processresult', function(se, args){	
    args.result.chart.polar = true

	args.result.pane = {
        size: '80%',
        innerSize: '20%',
            startAngle: -90
        endAngle: 90
    }
});
