Effect on your data and undo
Donut Progress does not change your source data; the result is added as a separate item. It refreshes automatically when the linked cells change. You can reverse it at any time with Undo Last.
How it differs from similar tools
Unlike a static picture you paste in by hand, it stays bound to your data and redraws itself whenever the source cells change.
Good to know
Auto-refreshes when a bound cell changes. Honest empty / dash state. Missing source shows a source-not-found state.
Limitations
Binds to one or more live cells.
