Build a Stacked Donut Chart in Tableau

You ever wanted to stack 4 pie charts on top of each other to build a visual? Let's have some fun building out a stacked donut chart or a "TrailBlazer" chart as I call it due to its likeness to a particular NBA team's logo.

    Thanks for watching! Again the technique is inspired by Simon Runc so I have to shout him out.

    Tried this out and worked like a charm. Thanks for the tutorial. Any tips on how to custom align the labels for the concentric rings in the chart? Thanks.

    Hi Anthony, I learnt to create donut chart by following your video. Do uou have any video where you are teaching some basics of tableau like index etc?

    Is there any way to stack pie/donut charts where different layers of the chart have different measures, for example, maybe one of the outer layers has a measure that's not in the inner layers?

    Thanks for the video, and yes I agree formatting within tableau is not fun. seems simple enough to recreate with my own data 🎊

    Thanks for the comment Joe. There should be a remove all axes, grid lines and borders single click option in my opinion.

    Hi Anthony. When I'm doing: Fixed Total Sales - Total Segment Sales it gives me some crazy huge number. All other calculations are correct. Getting really frustrated with calculated fields :/

    Sir, I tried implementing the same method for superstore data... with category as inner circle and sub-category as outer circle.. with only 1 measure "Sales", but was unsuccessful :(

    really helpful, thanks, question, how to switch the index, for example I want the smallest circle to be the outer circle and vice versa..

    I haven't tried this but try creating a calculated field and reassigning the Index value. For example, IF INDEX() = 1 THEN 3, etc..

    ​@@AnthonySmoak is the new calculated field will replace the INDEX in columns?, if tried it and it didn't work :( I use compute using Flag (it has value 0 and 1), the value 0 always be the smallest circle and what I want to achieve is to have circle which has flag 0 is in outside

    Hi I would love to know how you copied and pasted the index from the columns into the size tab to create three different sized pie charts. In the video it appears that you clicked on the index in the columns section from the top of the page and dragged the index into the size tab. Whenever I attempt to mimic what you did in the video I always lose the index in the columns section which results in me losing two pie charts and then I have one pie chart remaining. I would really appreciate any help you can offer. Thanks!

    does the technique works with more than 3 segments?

    In theory it should work with as many segments as you want.
