The new Looker Studio update introduces the ability to add chart titles to pie charts. Previously, it was not possible to easily add a title to a pie chart, which could leave the chart feeling incomplete within a dashboard. The update adds a Show title checkbox that allows users to add a title to their pie chart, complete with font and alignment options.

To add a title to a pie chart in Looker Studio, follow these steps:

1. Locate the pie chart to which you want to add a title.
2. Find and check the Show title checkbox.
3. Enter the desired title in the provided field.
4. Customize the title using the available font and alignment options to suit your dashboard's design.

The ability to add chart titles in Looker Studio is important because:

• It provides clarity and context to the data being presented in the pie chart.
• Titles help viewers understand the purpose of the chart at a glance, without needing additional explanation.
• A titled chart fits better aesthetically within a dashboard, making the overall presentation more professional and cohesive.
• For the person who shared the update, it significantly improves their peace of mind, as indicated by the humorous remark that their sleep improved by 15% with this feature.
