How can I have stacked and grouped columns in one chart?

Question

Hey,

is it possible to have two stacked columns next to each other? So they have different y-values but same x-value.

Thank you for this amazing library!

Very possible. Please see the BasicComboChart from the samples.

Also, the closed issue #1042

I don't understand what you mean by "next to each other". Don't you mean superimposed, like this example? I know One is a line chart here, because boxes hide boxes. Maybe you mean 3D chart? I haven't seen that on Android.

Sorry for not being clear enough, actually what I need/want is this: #660

Stacked and grouped columns in one chart:

I was not able to use the provided "solution" in this thread. But I think this was related to version 1.x anyways, so maybe there is another approach in Vico 2.x

Hello, @robertlinsener. As per #660, there is no built-in solution for this at the moment, but we will consider adding it.

You can still achieve this via subclassing. The exact approach described under #660 won't work anymore due to API changes, but the principle is the same.
