Stacked Bar Charts
Stacked bar charts are extensions of bar charts, where bars are divided into subparts to show cumulative effects. A stacked bar chart is based on part-to-whole analysis. In other words, stacked charts are used when the data sets are broken down into parts, and an individual data set as a whole is compared against another. When you move the cursor over each colored bar, a tool tip displays the label and value column values.
