HI

i want to display range axis as a percentage of total value.
for example : if i have values as 20 ,40 ,80 ,200 ,60 then the bar chart display Y-axis as --
(20/200)*100 = 10
(40/200)*100 = 20
(80/200)*100 = 40
(200/200)*100 = 100
(60/200)*100 = 30

Also i want to display them as : total = 20+40+80+200+60 =400

y-axis as -- ( 20/400)*100 = 5
(40/400)*100 = 10
(80/400)*100 =20
(200/400)*100 = 50
(60/400)*100 = 15

How can i customize my bar chart.

For the latter, try using a StackedBarRenderer. The former will most likely require you to create a custom dataset to return the values to plot. I am not sure why you would want to plot the values as a percentage of the maximum value and as a percentage of the total value, but it's your plot.
