Stacked bar

To render a stacked bar series, use series type as StackingBar and inject StackingBarSeries module using Chart.Inject(StackingBarSeries) method.

index.ts
index.html
import { Chart, StackingBarSeries, Category } from '@syncfusion/ej2-charts';
import { stackedData } from './datasource.ts';
Chart.Inject(StackingBarSeries, Category);

let chart: Chart = new Chart({
        series: [
            {
                //Series type as stacked bar
                type: 'StackingBar',
                dataSource: stackedData, xName: 'x', yName: 'y'
            }, {
                type: 'StackingBar',
                dataSource: stackedData, xName: 'x', yName: 'y1'
            }, {
               type: 'StackingBar',
                dataSource: stackedData, xName: 'x', yName: 'y2'
            }
        ],

Stacking group

You can use the stackingGroup property to group the stacked bar and 100% stacked bar. Columns with same group name are stacked on top of each other.

index.ts
index.html
import { Chart, StackingBarSeries } from '@syncfusion/ej2-charts';
import { stackedData } from './datasource.ts';
Chart.Inject(StackingBarSeries);

let chart: Chart = new Chart({
       series: [
            {
                type: 'StackingBar',
                //Stacking group for stacked bar
                stackingGroup: 'JohnAndAndrew',
                dataSource: stackedData, xName: 'x', yName: 'y'
            }, {
                type: 'StackingBar', name: 'Andrew', stackingGroup: 'JohnAndAndrew',
                dataSource: stackedData, xName: 'x', yName: 'y1'
            }, {
               type: 'StackingBar', name: 'Thomas', stackingGroup: 'ThomasAndMichael',
               dataSource: stackedData, xName: 'x', yName: 'y2'
            }
        ],

}, '#element');

Chart.Inject(StackingBarSeries, Category);

let chart: Chart = new Chart({
    series: [
        {
            //Series type as stacked bar with cylinder shape
            type: 'StackingBar', columnFacet: 'Cylinder',
            dataSource: stackedData, xName: 'x', yName: 'y'
        }, {
            type: 'StackingBar', columnFacet: 'Cylinder',
            dataSource: stackedData, xName: 'x', yName: 'y1'
        }, {
            type: 'StackingBar', columnFacet: 'Cylinder',
            dataSource: stackedData, xName: 'x', yName: 'y2'
