For a single dimension, multiple measures are displayed simultaneously as stacked heights. Each measure is differentiated by color or texture. The measure values are treated as absolute numbers.

Since proportions are conveyed through length, they are easier to perceive accurately than angles in a pie chart. For more precise communication of values, this chart is preferable to a pie chart.

A chart that shows measure values as proportions is distinguished by the name “100% stacked bar chart.” The entire chart display area represents 100%, and each measure is shown as a proportion of the whole.
