How To Draw A Percentage Bar Graph

Add column, bar, line, area, pie, donut, and radar charts in Numbers on Mac

To create any type of chart, you can add a chart to a sheet first, then select the table cells with the data you want to use. Or, you can select the data first, then create a chart that displays the data. Either way, when you change the data in the table, the chart updates automatically.

In Numbers, you can import a spreadsheet with charts from Microsoft Excel. The imported charts might look somewhat different from the original, but the data they display is the same.

Tip: You can learn about different chart types in the Charting Basics template. To open it, choose File > New, click Basic in the left sidebar, then double-click the Charting Basics template. In Charting Basics, click the tabs near the top of the template to view the different sheets; each one explains a different type of chart.
