Hello - Would appreciate some help in understanding this visual. I understand the "absolute" mode, as this is seems a bit more obvious.
What I don't understand about this mode, below, is how it compares proportions. Proportionately, it seems that the value I am comparing against the total should be smaller, not bigger. In other words, the blue value on the right shows a total of 12 won opportunities....the comparative value for the whole is 78 (grey area). Why are the proportions of the lower value (in blue) so much bigger?
Solved! Go to Solution.
Hi @Anonymous ,
I think you can't fix it.
This is a problem with the automatically generated visual.

Hi @Anonymous ,
this happens due to the unfavorable scale type of the second axis.

@mwegener - Does this mean the data type needs to be changed? Sorry, I'm not really following what you mean. Is there a way to fix it?
