I'm trying to arrange species into a sunburst (multilevel pie or ring) chart that summarizes their numbers at genus, family level and so on. I cannot seem to realize that with gnumeric (and neither with LibreOffice calc for that matter) as I happen to have too many "dimensions".

Here is an example of the gnumeric manual that shows how to use a sunburst chart: enter image description here

My data however comes in such format that I don't have the same entry across all rings:

Kingdom  Phylum  Class  Species_count
Animalia    Arthropoda  Insecta 2
Animalia    Arthropoda  Malacostraca    13
Animalia    Bryozoa Gymnolaemata    59
Bacteria    Cyanobacteria   Cyanophyceae    8

Is it possible to realize that within gnumeric or LibreOffice?

  • Maybe QtiPlot can do it. – Cornelius May 05 '14 at 20:03
  • You're trying to use a glove as a shoe: you have lots of denominations and one column of numbers. A sunburst chart has lots of data and one column title and one row title. No way to do this in LibreOffice or Gnumeric. You need specialised plotting software. – Fabby Nov 23 '14 at 14:31
