Visualization Change - Time Bars in Insights #5130

Closed clarkus closed 3 years ago

clarkus commented 3 years ago

Is your feature request related to a problem?

When using bar visualization types for insights, the default layout is a stacked bar. As the number of distinct series increases, or as the delta between series values increases, it becomes increasingly difficult to compare series visually by area.

Describe the solution you'd like

Change the Bar visualization from a vertical stacked bar to a grouping of bars for each point on the axis. This matches the current funnels visualization work really well. See https://github.com/PostHog/posthog/issues/4535# for more context.

Describe alternatives you've considered

The current alternative is a stacked bar. We could also consider small multiples, but given the layout of the chart and the data we're visualizing, this seems like the most straightforward solution.

Thank you for your feature request – we love each and every one!
