Stacked bars
Composition across categories, optionally as 100% stacks.
How to read it
Total length is the sum and each segment is one part. Only the bottom segment shares a baseline, so it is the only one that can be compared precisely across bars.
Best for
How the make-up of something differs between groups.
When not to use it
The interesting comparison sits in a middle segment — those float, and floating segments cannot be read against each other.
The common mistake
Normalising to 100% and then talking about growth. A percentage stack deliberately throws the totals away.
