OH3 charts - how to stack values?

Setup, Configuration and Use Items & Sitemaps
1

Hi,
I am failing to build a chart that stacks the lines (or areas) from two items.
Based on the ECharts documentation, stack: "<NAME>" in the config of both oh-time-series should do the trick, but I cannot get it to work.

Can someone please post an example for stacking values?

Also: information on charts in OH3 is quite limited. Would it make sense to have a thread or even a subtopic dedicated to collecting examples of chart-pages or chart-widgets?
Cheers, Bastian

This feature is available under the toolbar options.

Hi @Tuny,
thanks for the quick answer. It’s cool to see that stacking is possible at all, but I need to be able to preconfigure stacking for just some of the data-series displayed in the chart.
So what I’m searching for, is a way to set stacking in the chart-yaml.

Maybe it’s helpful to explain why I want this:
I am building a widget to to show the temperature/heating of a room over time as a chart.
The chart contains:

  • actual temperature of the room as a line
  • set temperature of the radiators in the room as a line (I learned that I have to display this as steps)
  • valve-setting for up to three radiators as an area - the valve setting (0% closed / 100% fully open) gives an indication of the energy used

As I have three radiators, I want to “sum up” the valve settings for them, by showing these three items all stacked onto one another.
An alternative would be to use a group-item that sums up the three valve-settings, but this has the disadvantage of hiding the individual valve-settings. The thermostat on each radiator determines the valve setting independeltly from one another, and hence it would be helpful to see these individual value.
Cheers, Bastian

I don’t know if it can help you, but I made this graph to stack by default the consumption of each plant
