WinUI Stacked Column Chart - Compare Data Easily

Overview

The WinUI Stacked Column Chart visualizes data with y-values stacked in the order of the series. It shows the relationship between individual values and the total sum of the points. Users can create beautiful, animated, real-time, high-performance stacked column charts that also support interactive features such as zooming, scrolling, trackball, tooltip, and selection.
