How to show both percentages and numbers in a chart

Hi everyone,

As titled, I would like to compute the storage rate of one rack by using the Statistics Collector functionality. Besides, a dashboard chart would show the data calculated, such as the utilisation-rate percentage and the number of items stored in the rack.

To achieve the goal, I have made an effort to design the display with options in its setting. However, it seems that the dashboard cannot show the two kinds of information (the utilisation rate and the number of stored items) at the same time.

I desire to know whether or not there is a possibility of illustrating the two data types in a single chart.

Thank you for your time

You could set up the statistics collector that feeds the chart to contain both the total amount as well as the percentage value. Then use one to determine the bar size and display one as label in front of the bar.
