<b>Note:</b> For improved chart capabilities and PMD Scripting support, use the chart 2.0 widget: [percentAreaChart2](/wcp_docs/kua1634324022094.html).

Displays a chart, which renders data as percentages. The chart has lines with filled areas below them. The lines and areas stack vertically. The vertical position of each point is offset by the position of the point on the line below it. The sum of all the areas equal 100%, which illustrates numerical proportion.

Use `percentAreaChart` only on view pages.

-   <b>hideLegend</b>

    Data type: boolean

    Determines whether or not the chart legend displays.

-   <b>horizontalAxisLabels</b>

    Data type: chartDimension

    The label for the horizontal ordinal axis. Specify the label using the chartDimension tag.

-   <b>horizontalAxisTitle</b>

    Data type: binding-String

    Name that displays for the horizontal axis.

-   <b>id</b>

    Data type: binding-String

    Unique identifier used to reference this widget from other tags.

    Notes:

    -   The `id` must start with a letter.
    -   The `id` must be unique per page.
    -   To enable other widgets to reference this widget `id`, place this widget before the other widgets on the PMD. The PMD validation returns an "Undefined variable" error if it doesn't find a previously defined `id` in the PMD.
    -   Workday recommends that you include the `id` in your tag definitions for debugging purposes.

-   <b>metrics</b>

    Data type: list of chartMetric objects

    An array of metrics. Each metric corresponds to a set of data for chartable elements (rectangles, lines, areas) with a color and a legend item. Specify each metric using the chartMetric tag.

-   <b>render</b>

    Data type: binding-Boolean

    If true, this tag renders as a widget on the page. If false, the loaded page doesn't add this tag or its children. The default is true.

    Unlike the `visible` attribute, when `render` is false, other tags on the page can't reference this tag or widget on edit pages. On view pages, a tag can't reference other tags regardless of the `render` attribute value.

-   <b>rowVariableName</b>

    Data type: string

    The variable name you can use to reference the data values. Example:

    ```
    "rowVariableName": "chartData"
    ```

-   <b>rows</b>

    Data type: dynamicBinding-List

    A required binding to a list of data rendered by the chart. Use `rowVariableName` to reference the chart data. Example: `<% workersEndpoint.data %>`

-   <b>showGrid</b>

    Data type: boolean

    If true, the data displays in a grid format below the chart.

-   <b>sortOrder</b>

    Data type: binding-String

    When you set `sorted` to true on the `section` or `fieldSet` parent of this widget, the `sortOrder` attribute determines the order of this widget within its parent. The sort order is relative to the siblings of the widget.

    Typical values are "a", "b", "c", and so on. Example: The widget with `"sortOrder": "a"` displays before the widget with `"sortOrder": "b"`.

    <b>Note:</b> The `sortOrder` doesn't apply to sorting data on the widget. `sortOrder` only applies to the placement order of the widgets within the parent widget.

-   <b>verticalAxisTitle</b>

    Data type: binding-String

    Displays a title for the vertical axis.
