100 Percent Stacked Charts |
100% stacked charts are useful for comparing proportional
contribution across all categories. They plot the relative contribution
of each data series to the total, expressed as a percentage. For example,
a 100% stacked column chart that plots product line sales
emphasizes the percentage within each region without referring to actual
values.
You can distinguish each data series by the color or pattern of its section in the stack. Each stack represents 100 per cent.
100% stacked charts highlight proportions. When actual values are important, we recommend that you use another chart configuration.
This 100% stacked chart shows the percentage of sales for each product line in each region.
