Horizontal bar chart
Bars run from left to right, with the labels down the side, which leaves room for long names. With several series, each bar stacks them. Hover over a bar to see its value.
Three ways to use it
Each example puts the widget on a Notion page and lists the settings it uses.
Team workload
Leave Values from empty to count the open tasks for each person. The longest bar shows who needs help first.
