🔑 Key Points:
- Creating a Stacked Column Chart: Start by selecting your data and inserting a stacked column chart directly from the Excel insert menu.
- Chart Customization: Adjust the chart to your preferences by modifying the title, legend position, and gap width for a more polished look.
- Adding Data Labels: Learn to add data labels to each stack in the chart for a clearer representation of values.
- Inserting Total Series: Discover the trick to include total values by adding a new series to your chart, transforming it into a useful visual tool.
- Switching Series Chart Type: Convert the total series from a stacked column to an XY scatter for precise marker placement.
- Formatting Data Labels and Series: Fine-tune data labels to display totals clearly above each column and hide the markers for a clean, professional appearance.

Stacked charts are great for when you want to compare different categories with one another and also show how much each category contributes to the whole.
The problem is that you can show the data labels for each of the stacks, but you cannot immediately show the total value of all the stacks on top of each bar. To do this, you need to follow the steps I show in the video.
