--- Comment #5 from Andy <silva...@katamail.com> --- Yes it is true, this has always been this way, I probably mixed up some different memories. However, as a statistician, I must say that the way this works (giving percentages for the multiple grouped columns, like in your attachment) is not always the thing one would like to get: If the bar chart represents a frequency distribution, you expect percentages to tell you the relative frequency of each bar when compared to the whole. Even when you have columns in couples, like in your example, most of the times you are comparing 2 distributions, one made of all the blue rectangles, and the other one made of all the red ones. For example, the blue bars could represent the frequencies for age groups for males, and the red bars the similar distribution for females. In such a case, you would like to see the relative importance of a certain age group among males, and compare it with the same information for females. I would say this is the expected info at least as often as having the internal composition of the age group between males and females, as is actually shown. Best thing, of course, would be to be able to choose what is right for you between the two alternatives... -- You are receiving this mail because: You are the assignee for the bug.
