I am trying to create a stacking plan in Qlik Sense. A stacking plan is a visual, two-dimensional, or 3D diagram representing the vertical, floor-by-floor occupancy of a commercial building.
I got pretty close using a stacked bar chart with:
However, I am not able to customize what is shown inside the bars. It always shows the measure value (floor space), see attachment. But it would be much more important to show the tenant name. I can show the tenant name in the tooltip, but it would be much better to show it directly in the chart. The width of each box is actually not important, they could all be the same size.
I have tried with dual(), but it still shows the numerical value. I have also seen this video, but this is different, as I have only one measure. Any suggestions on how to achieve this?
Give the dual() another trial by ensuring that the formatting within the properties is set to custom respectively expression-result and not to an automatic.
I have tried dual() again. Unfortunately it does not work for a stacked bar chart. For a normal bar chart it works fine.
In QlikView it's working with stacked-bars, too. Therefore I could imagine that's further the case with Sense.
Maybe you tries it with a dummy-application - just a few inline records with simple values of a, b, c and 1, 2, 3 ... and then playing with the chart-configurations (in QV it needs to be set to show the values within the segments). You may detect that any settings is missing/wrong and/or there are to many values and/or they are too long (not enough space within the bars), any NULL stuff ...
I've tried it with a dummy app, but it does not work. I reported it to Qlik as a bug, but got the feedback that this works as intended:
That's pity - IMO the user should get the options to enable/disable such features.
