Stacked bar charts already display the value of each section of a bar, but there isn't a way to display the total value of each bar, which would include all the sections.

RE: Display total value of a bar on a stacked bar chart
How did this get missed for the June update? This would be a simple yet huge addition....
RE: Display total value of a bar on a stacked bar chart
I'm suprised this isn't getting more attention. Especially in a sorting situation the chart often becomes less usable due to the inability to sort by the total ammount.
RE: Display total value of a bar on a stacked bar chart
This would be a really useful feature, currently I have to use a line to display the total values which is a work around but not ideal.
RE: Display total value of a bar on a stacked bar chart
There's a workaround for stacked column & line chart: Make the chart show the total value as the line. Then show the line's data labels and make the line transparent. There is no work around for the bar chart. This is a necessary feature.
RE: Display total value of a bar on a stacked bar chart
Definitely needed. The only workaround is to put another chart behind it with just the totals or a stacked bar with line chart which looks ugly with the lines going across the bars.
RE: Display total value of a bar on a stacked bar chart
In line with that suggestion - if we could sort a stacked chart based on the totals rather than one element - that would make it far more useful as well. :)
RE: Display total value of a bar on a stacked bar chart
This would be brilliant. If, in some way, we would be able to display the sales of each brand pr. sales channel, and then display the total sales across brands pr. sales channels, in the same chart.... That would make the whole thing a lot more interesting.
