Interactive Chart: How do I show a layer within a layer for a bar chart?

Hello fantastic people of the internet! 

 

I have a chart of overall revenue per month, and I am trying to incorporate a layer deeper of the different product lines like the colored bar below. Attached is a snippet of the chart and data I am working with. How do I accomplish this?

Hello!! 

 

If you're trying to overlay and not stack you can add layers to your graph and configure them as you please by clicking Add Layer from within the Chart's configuration. Then, within the new layer's configuration, Under Style>Layer>Layer Mode you can select overlay to lay the new layer atop the blue and configure your colors. :)

Hi @C_Hall 

 

You can split the Chart under Create -> Transforms and choosing to split by ProductLine like so:

Then you can in Style -> Layer choose multiple and select the colours you want

This was the closest solution: using the Transform and split. Thank you, kind sir!
