Hi!
I have some survey data where a topic has a few questions ranging to a topic that has lots. When switching between these on a stacked bar chart, it (as expected) expands to fill the space available and IMHO looks a bit inelegant and "shouty"!
There doesn't seem to be an option to set an absolute bar height (I might be wrong so please let me know!)
Is there anyway to achieve this?
One thought I had was to create a summary table that has a set number of rows for questions and if less than the set number then it puts in dummy questions "-" with zero values though not entirely sure how to do this - would this work?
Thanks for any help/ideas.
Richard
Solved! Go to Solution.
You should prefer a visual that does not have scroll bars. Vertical scroll bars may be acceptable, horizontal scroll bars are a sure red flag.
While you cannot change the bar height you can change the ratios.
Consider custom visuals like Deneb if you want more control over the layout.
Thanks! I always try and avoid scroll bars 😀 I'll check out Deneb - thanks again
