Overview

This chart type displays multiple sets (i.e. series) of data as stacked bars, and the cumulative proportion of each stacked element always totals 100%.

The 100% stacked bar chart is useful for measuring multiple series as a proportion vs. time. A good example of this would be displaying the proportion of a monthly mortgage payment that is applied towards interest, and the proportion that is applied towards principal over time. The entire mortgage payment amount would represent 100%, while the interest and the principal values would be the two stacked elements that make up one bar.

Caution
Each series is represented by a "stacked" layer. These series must be aligned by X values otherwise an exception will occur.

 

For more information on alignment see the topic on Aligning Series.
