Re: st: overlay of stacked bar and line?

[Sergiy Radyakin <serjradyakin@gmail.com>]

Nina,

stacked bar plot is not a twoway graph type. So it would be hard to do this:
http://docs.fusioncharts.com/charts/contents/ChartSS/Images/StackedColumnLine2D.jpg
http://www.anychart.com/products/anychart/docs/articles/Creating%20dashboard%20from%20the%20scratch_files/dashboard-stacked-column-line-combination.jpeg

with a standard set of commands (if the above is what you mean).

It should be possible to do it by overlaying an area plot and a line
plot, but you would need to rewrite the implementation of the stacked
bar plot as an area plot, which is possible, but a rather boring
exercise.

Best, Sergiy.
