I’ve already tried several different numerical columns, but the graph always stays at 100% regardless of the values ​​I enter. What should I do?

Can you share a screenshot of your current content? Most likely, you’re trying to visualize only 1 label value, so it’ll always display 100%.

A radial chart is always going to add up to 100%. You are showing one unique item and that’s 100% of all items being shown. If you were expecting the chart to show 2 values…one for 41 and another for 59, then you would need a second row with that 59. Yes, it’s probably possible to set that up, but a lot of extra work just to show progress, which isn’t the intended use of a radial chart.

I think what you might be looking for is a type of progress bar instead. Glide does have a progress bar component, but it’s not a circle like the radial chart.

Instead you have a couple of options. One is to use a third party service like quickchart to generate an image, much like how I use it in one of my apps.

The other option is to create a custom component to look and work the way you want based on your data.
