What it is
Streamgraph stacks series around a central baseline that floats, producing flowing shapes that emphasize change in composition rather than totals. The chart for music genre share, ad spend mix, and any narrative "how did the wave shift?"
What it does
Floating-baseline stacked area with smooth interpolation, per-category color, tooltip, and label leaders.
Why use it
Best for showing how composition shifts when the absolute total isn’t the headline.
Three ways teams use it
