New Pie Chart in QlikSense


Hello and welcome all…!

I was planning to continue with my articles on Mashups, but could not resist myself to post an article on a new Pie chart from QlikSense. So, here we go…

Have you ever thought about Pie chart with two measures? So, here in Nov 2018 version of QlikSense, they have come up with a chart called, Rose chart. It’s another style of Pie chart, where you can add two measures, and the radius of the chart defines the second measure – 


Now, suppose, we have –ve values for 2nd metric, which we will not be able to plot in the above chart. In that case, the Pie chart can be represented as donut chart with –ve values and of course two measures.

Other properties like, Sorting, Alternate states etc., will remain as is.

I really like this visualisation, where you can instantly understand the proportion of the measure to the total. But suppose, if you have many values for dimensions, like products in 100's this might not help. Also this chart takes a lot of space, but of course a good visualisation though.

That’s it for this article. Stay tuned for more and more articles…!!
