Template:Stacked bar/doc

Usage

Makes a horizontal stacked chart of up to 12 counts (plus a gray bar if the total is greater than the sum of the 12). If no total is supplied, defaults to 100 (for percentages). By default, uses nice rainbow of colors that don't correspond to reserved article class or importance colors, but colors can be customized.

Article counts may be automatically calculated with the {{PAGESINCATEGORY}} magic word, e.g. {{PAGESINCATEGORY:FA-Class Square Enix articles|R}}

• A# variables: Amounts. Given as any plain number. No units permitted.
• T# variables: Optional titles. If no title is wanted, leave completely blank. (A   or similar is not helpful.)
• C# variables: Optional colour values as any valid CSS colour. Defaults to a rainbow-type progression
• Total Optional total amount. Given as any plain number. No units permitted. Defaults to 100.
• height Optional height of the bar. Given as a CSS length (px recommended). Defaults to 10.
• vertical_caption: If set to yes/true, have the labels use vertical text. If set to lean, tilts the text at an angle.
• caption_height: If the captions are vertical, their height is limited to this. Given as a CSS length, e.g. 8em or 200px.

Examples

Video game good articles by arbitrary category

{{Stacked bar|A1=833|T1=Video games |A2=33|T2=Series |A3=94|T3=Characters |A4=99|T4=Development |A5=71|T5=Music |A6=29|T6=Media |A7=36|T7=Etc|C7=Black |Total=1195}}

Note that if the width of the bar section is narrower than the width of the lables, then the labels push each other out of the way, harming readability. The final section has also been given a specified color, while the rest are left at defaults.

Video game good articles with vertical text

This is slightly harder to read, but will allow all but the narrowest categories to line up properly.
