Abstract

The present disclosure relates to dynamically adjusting a title in a donut chart based on an adjustment to the donut chart. The donut chart may include an outer ring portion, an inner hole region, and the title. In particular, the title may be set based on the inner hole region to prevent the title from overlapping the outer ring portion which may prevent the title from obscuring labels located in the outer ring portion. As a property of the donut chart is adjusted, the title may be automatically adjusted for better visual effect. For example, the title may be dynamically resized and/or dynamically rewrapped. In this manner, the title may be dynamically adjusted based on an adjustment to the donut chart, avoiding the tedious process of manually adjusting the title for better visual effect.
