# Understanding the Radial visualization

The Radial visualization displays data as circular progress bars, representing progress toward goals in a visually engaging, radial format. Each ring can represent a unique metric or dimension, making it easy to see progress on multiple targets simultaneously. The circular layout provides an at-a-glance view of completion levels, making it ideal for tracking metrics where visual emphasis on progress or goal completion is essential.

## Features

The following key functionalities are offered by the Radial visualization:

- Display up to 15 bars, each representing a metric or dimension.
- Set maximum values to calculate automatically or align with a specific goal, metric, or custom value.
- Option to hide the chart legend to maximize the display area.


## Considerations

- The maximum value display is hidden when more than one metric or dimension is added.
- The color gradient is determined by the selected color theme.
- Comparisons with other periods are not supported.


## Use Cases

Here are some ideal applications for the Radial visualization:

- **Tracking Sales Targets:** Use this visualization to monitor sales progress toward goals, presenting a clear picture of team achievements.
- **Visualizing Task Completion:** Use the Radial bar to display project tasks, providing a quick overview of the percentage completed in relation to the target goal.
- **Monitoring Health Metrics:** Track metrics like engagement rate or active users toward set benchmarks for a visually engaging snapshot of health metrics.
- **Goal Attainment for KPIs:** Display progress toward key performance indicators, providing an at-a-glance view of how close each metric is to reaching targets.
