RatioBar Example Usage

I'm fairly inexperienced with writing complex charting XML in Splunk, and I'd like to see if anyone has an example for how to use RatioBar graphs. I'd like to create a graph of the count of all events over time, with the bars splitting out into the ratio of which hosts they came from (perhaps limiting to the top 5 or something). Thanks in advance

The easiest way to do this is in the advanced charting view.

Search app >> views >> advanced charting

... | timechart count by <field> limit=5 useother=f

Set chart type to "column" and stack mode to "stacked" or "100% stacked" if you prefer.
