WPF 100% Stacked Bar Chart | Visualize & Compare

Overview

The WPF 100% stacked bar chart displays multiple series of data as stacked bars, ensuring that the cumulative proportion of each stacked element always totals 100%. Thus, the y-axis will always render within the range 0–100. This chart type is best suited for depicting the relative contribution of data points.
