Hi Team,

I would like to have a YTD ghost bar chart like view in pigment. Pigment native chart doesn’t have ghost chart but is there a way we could achieve the view in pigment.

Thanks

Hi Nancy,

Pigment doesn't currently support ghost bar charts (outline-only or overlapping transparent bars) natively. Here are two workarounds to achieve a similar YTD comparison:

Combined Chart (Bar + Line) — Display YTD actuals as bars and your target/benchmark as a line series, with an optional secondary axis. This is the closest native alternative for an actuals-vs-target overlay.

Grouped Bar Chart — Place actuals and targets side-by-side using the Grouped layout for a straightforward visual comparison.

For more on chart customization, see:

Hope this helps!
