How to Create a Stacked Area Chart

Introduction

This article describes how to go from a table containing multiple variables:

To a state where you display the table in a stacked area chart:

Requirements

• A Multiway table. To create a multiway table from the toolbar select Create > Tables > Multiway Table  from the toolbar. From the object inspector, go to Inputs and select the Rows, Columns, and Numeric inputs.
• A crosstab, which is a table that shows the relationship between two or more variables.
• A table of data pasted from a spreadsheet.

Method

1. Go to Create > Charts > Visualization > Area >  Stacked Area. 
2. From the object Inspector, you have 3 different methods for providing input data to the area chart. In the DATA SOURCE section, use one of the following:
   • Output - select a table output.
   • Variables - select an individual variable from the Data Sets tree. Once an item is selected a second drop-down called Groups will appear in the object inspector. Here you can select a second variable to create a crosstab.
   • Paste or Type data button - copy and paste data from Excel or some other source directly into a spreadsheet object in Displayr.
3. From OUTPUT, tick the Stack series box.
