Overview
A stacked status bar shows how a total splits into statuses: the total in large type, one bar divided into segments in the colour of each status, and a legend with the count and percentage per status. The segments are as wide as their share, with small gaps between them and rounded ends.
The bar is made of four containers whose FillPortions are the values, so the auto layout does the maths. For a fifth status, copy StackedStatusBarSegment4, rename it and change the 4 in its formulas to 5.
When to use
- Dashboards that show how work is spread over statuses, such as done, open and overdue.
- Two to four statuses that add up to a meaningful total.
When not to use
- Comparing unrelated numbers: use a ranked bar list.
- One value against a target: use a progress bar or a progress ring.

Make it yours
The example runs on sample data. Replace these properties to connect it to your app.
Items on StackedStatusBarLegend
One row per status, up to four, with a Label, a Value and a Color. Keep the AddColumns line, which adds the Total the percentages use. The red for Overdue is hard-coded; pick a colour that suits your theme.
In the YAML

=With(
{
rows: Table(
{Label: "Completed", Value: 58, Color: App.Theme.Colors.Primary},
{Label: "In progress", Value: 21, Color: App.Theme.Colors.Lighter40},
{Label: "Overdue", Value: 6, Color: RGBA(209, 52, 56, 1)},
{Label: "Not started", Value: 15, Color: ColorFade(App.Theme.Colors.Darker70, 82%)}

What the total counts.
In the YAML
Text: ="Inspections this quarter"Your version
Text: ="Requests this month"How to paste
- Open your app in Power Apps Studio.
- Check that modern controls are on: Settings → Updates → Modern controls and themes. In newer environments they are on by default.
- Copy the YAML with the Copy button above the code.
- In the Tree view, select the screen or container that should hold the component and press Ctrl+V. The whole component arrives as one container,
StackedStatusBarRoot, with all its controls inside. - Work through Make it yours to swap the example data for your own.
Where your version of Studio has a code view for a control or screen, you can paste the same YAML there instead of into the tree view.
When Studio flags a control version
Each control in the YAML names its version, like Control: ModernButton@1.0.0. If that version is newer than what your environment knows, Studio falls back to the version it has or flags the control. All controls of one type in an app must also use the same version, so an app that already has an older ModernButton can reject the paste. To fix it, insert the same control from the Insert pane, copy it as code, note the version on its Control: line, update every matching line in the YAML and paste again.
