Sentiment Donut

The Sentiment Donut is a visual widget that shows the proportional distribution of sentiments derived from text responses to a specific survey question.

This donut-style chart categorizes responses into six sentiment categories: Very Negative, Negative, Neutral, Positive, Very Positive, and No Sentiment. It helps users quickly assess the emotional tone of feedback and compare sentiment trends across questions, groups, or time periods.

• Sentiment Categories: Each sentiment is color-coded and represented as a segment of the donut.
  • Very Negative
  • Negative
  • Neutral
  • Positive
  • Very Positive
  • No Sentiment
• Proportional View: The donut visually represents the percentage share of each sentiment based on the total number of valid text responses.
• Cross-Question Comparison: Multiple sentiment donuts can be used to compare sentiment across groups or questions (if available).
