(1) Explain your problem, don't simply post "This isn't working". What were you doing when you faced the problem? What have you tried to resolve - did you look for a solution using "Search" ? Has it happened just once or several times?
(2) It's also good to get feedback when a solution is found, return to the original post to explain how it was resolved so that more people can also use the results.

Great Resources.
Here is another additional resource on histograms and stacked histograms: https://www.schedulereader.com/blog/understanding-primavera-p6-histograms/
Couple of problems with P6's stacked histograms.
"At Completion Units" is the only choice, "Remaining" and "Forecast" might be more useful
The filter to identify each data range only lets you select from attributes of the Resource Dictionary NOT the Resource Assignment. This is very restricting, for example you might be using the same resource for regular maintenance and for turnaround activities – you can’t colour these differently. Indeed the same resource on two different projects cannot be coloured different.
And of course you can't show the data range table under the histogram.

Primavera P6 stacked histograms are powerful tools. I recommend to use it for cost and resource loading purposes. Here you can find an article explains stacked bar charts and primavera stacked histograms
