Make bars stack instead of cluster in a stacked bar chart

Hello,

 

I have data like this:

TBDRW_1-1657007828831.png

 

 

Which is producing a graph like this:

TBDRW_0-1657007811850.png

I would like the two colours of blue to be stacked together in a single line. How can I achieve this?

 

See sample case with wrong orientation:

It eventually just sorted itself, now the graph is displaying correctly.

Try Stacked column charts.

Hi @Anonymous ,

You can try using "100% stacked column chart" ->(it will display something like this - see the screenshot for your reference)

Put your date column(1st column) in X-axis, 3rd column in Y-axis and 2nd column in Legend.

I need the relative sizes of the bars, so 100% doesn't work.

Try Stacked column charts.
