We did play around quite a bit with the layout, and one version had the total sparkline on the right also, but in practice it seemed to lose the framing effect which the bars give.

The main reason we went with this version though was down to the business, in that it’s the one they chose from 3 slightly varying alternatives we offered!

Might there have been a little extra value in a Total sparkline column on the right, next to the “share by product” stacked bars?
