I want to show a stacked bar chart (single bar) that only one part of it (the dark green one that has 15%) is clickable, when clicked this section will drill down. see examples below:

stacked bar option: Before drill down

After drill down

any suggestions?

  • Why only one section? Can you provide some more context of the problem you’re trying to solve?

Try placing emphasis on the legend, so it's persistent in size and prominence regardless of the % of the dataset.

You could try to suggest the drilldown in the data, but you'll run into problems where you have a small % of the whole, but still is important to inspect: this means there's less pixel area to both suggest interactivity, and for the user to actually select and drilldown on the data.

Use the legend; it's persistent, and you can try using borders, text or a combo of both.
