How to Create a Gauge Chart
A step by step walkthrough for building a grid of speedometer style gauges with targets, colour bands and a needle in PlotSet.
约 6 分钟You will end up with a grid of gauges, one per row of your data, each with its value in the middle and an optional target marker.
Expect about six minutes. Most of it goes on choosing the scale and the colour bands.
你需要的数据
One row per gauge, with a value and, if you want them, a metric name and a target.
Values must be plain numbers, with no percent signs.
The minimum and maximum are settings, not data, so every gauge shares one scale.
Up to 24 gauges are drawn. After that a note says how many are not shown.
The metric and target columns are optional.
操作步骤
PlotSet 中从空白模板到完成图表的具体点击路径。
- 01
Open the Gauge template
From the PlotSet dashboard, start a new project and choose Gauge Chart from the Other category. It loads with a sample of eight KPIs.

每份指南都从这里开始:先选分类,再选模板,不管你要做哪种图表,用的都是同一个网格。 - 02
Add your values
Import a CSV or .xlsx file, paste rows from a spreadsheet, or connect a Google Sheet. Each row becomes one gauge.

这里的数据视图取自一个条形图项目。你可以上传 CSV、用「Magic Import」从图片里提取数字,或同步 Google Sheet,每种图表类型的面板都一样。 - 03
Check the column bindings
Bind the value column, then the metric name as the label and the target if you have one.

绑定决定哪一列作标签、哪一列提供数值、哪一列决定颜色。「Auto Binding」(自动绑定)会根据表头推测,所以要核对一遍,别想当然。 - 04
Set the scale
In the Scale tab, set the minimum and maximum. A percentage metric usually runs from 0 to 100.

Gauge Chart 的「Preview」标签页。所有样式设置都在红框标出的这个面板里,每个设置各自占一个标签页:外观、标题、脚注,以及这种图表类型特有的选项。 - 05
Add colour bands
In the Bands tab, set two thresholds and a colour for each of the poor, fair and good ranges.
- 06
Switch on the needle
The Needle tab adds a pointer at the value, and sets its colour and width.
- 07
Shape the arc
The Arc tab sets the start and end angle and the thickness, and whether the ends are rounded.
- 08
Publish and embed
Publish for a live chart and copy the embed code from the Share dialog. Check how it looks at the width of your page before you share it.

点「Share」,完成的图表就会变成一个公开链接和一段嵌入代码。

打开模板Gauge Chart 的样式提示
Keep the grid small
Eight gauges or fewer stay readable. Beyond that, a bullet chart fits more.
Use bands sparingly
Three colours is enough. More makes the dial hard to read.
Shorten the labels
Short metric names stay whole under each gauge.
Share one unit
Put percentages on one board and counts on another.
制作 Gauge Chart 时的常见错误
The arcs look almost empty
The maximum is far above the values. Lower it so the scale fits the data.
A value is off the scale
It is above the maximum or below the minimum, so the arc is clipped. Widen the range.
There is no target marker
The target column is not bound. Check the bindings.
Some gauges are missing
Only 24 gauges are drawn. Split the data across charts.
