I wish to create a table in which the foreground is a number (abundance) but the background is a visual representation of a ratio (shallow:deep). In other words, the background of each cell of the table would be two colours or patterns set in a similar fashion to a stacked bar in a bar graph based on a secondary parameter/vector. The table will be extensive (15 by 30) and so I don't want to have to enter the values for each cell manually, but rather refer to a variable. I have seen how to create single color backgrounds, and backgrounds of a color that represents a category, but not a ratio. Possible?
You can draw, e.g. two filled polygons of appropriate sizes in the background before adding the foreground. Uwe Ligges
