A Circle Packing Chart nests circles within circles to represent parent-child relationships in hierarchical data. Circle size encodes a quantitative value, making it easy to compare items both within and across groups.
This sample groups the IMDb Top 250 movies by genre in a circle packing layout on a dark background. Custom stroke styling highlights circle boundaries, and rich HTML tooltips display each film’s title, year, genre, runtime, gross revenue, synopsis, and poster image.
Follow the step-by-step Circle Packing Tutorial to learn how such charts are built. See the Circle Packing documentation for all configuration options.
