Hi,

In order to plot the chart how you want you would have to make the negative
values positive.

You may need to explain further why you need a negative value should be
displayed in a positive way?

Cheers

I'd like to include negative values in stacked bar charts, with the total
stacked value equal to the sum of each of the subtotals. However, when I
tested this, it appears that Excel just shows the negative components at
the
bottom of the bar, below zero, but the stacked total still seems to
reflect
the sum of the positive components.

Is there a way of showing a stacked bar the way I'm trying to do it?
