Multiple values for each bar

[dynaum]

I modified the bars chart to accept multiple values for each bar.

Why:
I need a graph to tell me the percentage of success and fails for each method per day.

As far as I know, this is already done by dynaum as stacked bars in #120.

[dynaum]

Yes, I did!

But there is a little difference between stacked bars and multiple values.
The stacked bars allow us to join bars per day, for example, to visualise the amount.
But Multiple values allow us to show more info in each bar per day.

I will look into #120 and try to provide such functionality as an add-on to
stacked bars.

Could you implement this feature for your charts using the new hoverCallback feature instead? It's currently undocumented, but see the example in decimals-custom-hover.

I'm not sure this is a common enough use case to justify adding the extra complexity to the core library.

[dynaum]

I saw the example but is not what I want, because I show the graph with a table in the page. This is not the case to just have the hover customized. I need to show bars in the same day with more then one value.

Tomorrow I will introduce a new option to Morris.Bar called accumulate: true|false (default: true). If it's value is true, the chart will look as it looks now (for each data row the upper bound for the bar will be the sum of all series in this row) but if you set it to false, each data row series will get sorted ascending and drew bottom-up so the upper bound will be the maximum for the given row. In this case, you will achieve exactly what you expect to get.

[dynaum]

Great! But I am not sure if you understood my problem.

For example we have the follow table:

So my graph should display the success(# Sucesso) and fail(# Falha) for each method(Método) per day(Data).

Can I have 2 accumulated bars per day?

Honestly, my gut reaction is that just isn't a great chart.

I want to keep Morris.js simple, so I'm pushing back on more features recently. If you want to do this with Morris.js, I suggest you find an alternative way of showing that data. Otherwise look at Highcharts or something in the D3 ecosystem.

#148 Somehow solves @dynaum's issue, but it requires to have consistent value domain for the whole chart (so no mixing %'s and #'s is allowed).

[oesmith]

I've rejected this #148, so I'm closing this one too.
