MORE INFORMATION

Area Chart #2 is best used with more than one series. This chart justifies each category to 100 percent. This means that each category will be the same height, giving you a square block. It is useful for comparing two or more series because each category is divided into a percentage of the whole. This area chart is similar to a pie chart because a pie chart is always a full circle.
