Please fix this - Negative Values are not allowed in Stacked columns

[gerpei]

Since Illustrator this bug exists.

Negative Values are not allowed in Stacked columns!

I think it is a half an hour work for a programmer ...
but it costs me hours - to fix that per hand!!!

Thank you very much!

Stacked bar chart to support positive AND negative numbers in the same chart – Adobe Illustrator

I'm afraid it has very few votes, indicating little general interest.

That means?

The bug will still exist in 10 Years? 😄
Because the thousands of professional Chart-Makers are quiet?
😄
Thank you very much, for your open and honestly conversation. 🙂

There's always lots of interest in renewed chart tools in general:

Improve Graph / Chart tool – Adobe Illustrator

But I suspect indecision on the overall strategy for graphs has hindered specific improvements over the years.

Otherwise yes, bugs and features are prioritised by community support, and specific issues with charts are unlikely to get many votes.
