Bar chart showing all dimensions while calculating % of total

Hi. I created a bar chart using "country" as dimension, with selections on "year" and "product". The fact is "sales".

I created a bar chart to show sales of countries, and forcing the x-axis to show all countries regardless of which country I selected in the list box as follows:

Sum({$<country=>} sales)

It worked fine. But now I would like the bar chart to show as a percentage of each country against the total of all countries. What should I put as the denominator in the expression? Normally just the expression "Sum({$<country=>} sales)" itself in a textbox will show the total of all sales according to the year and product selected, but since in the bar chart I already have that in the numerator.. I am a bit confused.

Thanks!

'Relative' option under expression tab will do the same.

I am not sure about my answer. Please, respond if the answer is wrong.
