Is There a Way to Create A Stacked Bar Chart with Total Lables?

Hello, 

 

I am trying to use the graph builder to create stacked bar chart with labels for each stacked bar as well as a sum total.  The image below is a marked up version of the graph I am hoping to achieve where I have manually inserted the totals for each bar.  (The sample JMP dataset I used along with the embedded graph builder script is attached)

 

Does anyone know if there is a way to create this view via the graph builder/another platform or JSL scripting?

 

Thanks,

AW

@AW ,

 

@txnelson provided a good solution. It takes a bit of scripting for the labels.  Here is another method using GraphBuilder.  I think it is easier to see the pattern via the saved script (below). This can be done via the UI and turning off Overlay variable. The graph has 3 Elements:

  • a stacked bar using the overlay variable
  • a bar not using the overlay variable
  • a caption with Summary Statistic Sum not using the overlay variable

Note I saved your data table to my c:/temp/ drive. The Caption elemnet does not have the flexibility of placement that Jim's solution provides.

Names Default to Here(1);

dt = open("C:/temp/Sample Dataset for Stacked Graph Builder Bar Chart.jmp");

gb = dt <<  Graph Builder(
	Size( 534, 492 ),
	Show Control Panel( 0 ),
	Variables(
		X( :Test_Step_Duration ),
		Y( :Test ),
		Group X( :Sample Information ),
		Overlay( :Test_Step )
	),
	Elements(
		Bar(
			X,
			Y,
			Overlay( 0 ),
			Legend( 11 ),
			Bar Style( "Stacked" ),
			Summary Statistic( "Sum" )
		),
		Caption Box(
			X,
			Y,
			Overlay( 0 ),
			Legend( 13 ),
			Summary Statistic( "Sum" ),
			Per Factor( 1 )
		),
		Bar( X, Y, Legend( 14 ), Bar Style( "Stacked" ), Label( "Label by Value" ) )
	),
	Local Data Filter(
		Add Filter( columns( :Project ), Where( :Project == "Project 1" ) )
	),
	SendToReport(
		Dispatch(
			{},
			"Test_Step_Duration",
			ScaleBox,
			{Label Row( Show Major Grid( 1 ) )}
		),
		Dispatch(
			{},
			"400",
			ScaleBox,
			{Legend Model(
				11,
				Properties(
					-1,
					{Transparency( 0.1 )},
					Item ID( "Sum(Test_Step_Duration)", 1 )
				)
			), Legend Model(
				14,
				Properties( 0, {Fill Color( 69 )}, Item ID( "Step 1", 1 ) ),
				Properties( 1, {Fill Color( 67 )}, Item ID( "Step 2", 1 ) ),
				Properties( 2, {Fill Color( 36 )}, Item ID( "Step 3", 1 ) ),
				Properties( 3, {Fill Color( 40 )}, Item ID( "Step 4", 1 ) ),
				Properties( 4, {Fill Color( 38 )}, Item ID( "Step 5", 1 ) ),
				Properties( 5, {Fill Color( 39 )}, Item ID( "Step 6", 1 ) )
			)}
		),
		Dispatch(
			{},
			"X title",
			TextEditBox,
			{Set Text( "Test_Step_Duration and Total" )}
		),

		)
	)
);

txtseg = gb << Xpath("//TextSeg");
txtseg << Set Font("Segoe UI", 10, "Bold");
txtseg[1] << {Transparency( 0 ), Text Color( "White" )};  //clear out the statistic

You can add your own custom graphic scripts to Graph Builder,  Right click on the graph, and select Custom and you will see the JSL added.  I only added the code for the top 2 bars, but it should show you how to move ahead with all of them.

Attached is the script

@txnelson , @gzmorgan0 

 

Thank you very much for the quick replies and creative ways to solve this issue!  I neglected to mention that I will need to cycle through and generate these plots for ~100 different projects per week.  So, I think the script provided by gzmorgan0 is a better fit for me. I just tried it out and it works perfectly for my needs.  Thanks again!
