Chart Sizing

Here are some best practices to follow when sizing charts in dashboards:

  • The dashboard layout should be no more than three panels wide.

  • Avoid using pie, ring, gauge, and donut charts in widths other than one third.

  • If using multiple pie, ring, gauge, and donut charts in a dashboard, ensure that they're all similarly sized.
