multiple stacked column bar chart issue

Hi Experts,

 

In this multiple column stacked bar I have data for week and YTD. the bar chart is based on hourly buucket(yellow is 11 am to 1 pm) and other is 1pm to 3 pm

 

my problem is eventhough I had set off the concatenated labels my dayname show split by week and ytd.  i should get tuesday( week and YTD).

 

Is it possible to show ytd bar in any differnet color or is there any work around.

Hi @Anonymous ,

 

for different colors, you have to generate a corresponding legend.

You can change the order by a "Sort by column".

Hi @Anonymous ,

For my tested result, I think you can adjust the fields position in the Fields pane and try again:

Perhaps these are your expected output:

I know that it was group by Name which (Week and YTD), is it possible to remove the name week and YTD and just show two bar under dayname

It may not have no intervals between the two columns as I tested.
