How to Draw a Divided Bar Chart

A divided bar graph is a rectangle divided into smaller rectangles along its length in proportion to the data. Segments in a divided bar represent a set of quantities according to the different proportion of the total amount. A divided bar diagram is created using rectangular bars to depict proportionally the size of each category. The bars in a divided bar graph can be vertical or horizontal. The size of each rectangle displays the part that each category represents. The value of the exact size of the whole must be known because each section of the bar displays a piece of that value. A divided bar diagram is rather similar to a sector diagram in that the bar shows the entire data amount and the bar is divided into several parts to represent the proportional size of each category. ConceptDraw DIAGRAM in conjunction with Divided Bar Diagrams solution provides tools to create stylish divided bar charts for your presentations.
