Donut Chart

Data:

There are two ways of defining data for a Donut Chart. First is to use a CSV file that was formatted in the following way:

• First Column is always Name of the data point.
• Second Column is always the numerical Value for the data point.

Example:

Another possible way is to define the data in Dynamo directly and then use the node DonutChart.Data to define all of the desired data points. Here's a potential sample of defining data in Dynamo:

Style:

Donut Chart Style has a few things that can be set optionally to control the visual appearance of the chart. First two inputs are for controling a color. You can either use a Dynamo Color node or a little bit of DesignScript syntax and a Code Block to define that input. Example: DSCore.Color.ByARGB(1,220,180,20). Colors input accepts a list of colors if you wish to give each slice of the chart/data its own color. Width and Height are integer inputs that by default are set to 1000px x 500px. The actual size of the chart is always a little smaller because of margins required for handling label graphics etc. There is also a boolean inputs for Labels. If set to true, labels will appear around the chart in a sun-ray style. If you are using Labels, you might want to set the margins for a chart to create space around it.
