In SAS Visual Analytics, some visual graph objects, such as a stacked bar chart, do not suppress data with a complement when you use the suppress withComplement operator. This issue occurs because these objects do not show the computed total or subtotals of the category. A stacked bar chart simply sums the segment values that are visualized.   

In some cases, report authors want to place two visualizations in the same report. For example, they might want a stacked bar chart that does not display totals and a crosstab table, and one of these visualizations has totals enabled.   

In general, when working with suppressed data, report designers need to be careful that something cannot be inferred by other data that is being displayed. If someone were to view either of these objects independently, they would not be able to infer the suppressed data. However, when they are displayed together, items could possibly be inferred.
