Tips on using this forum..

(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.

I have a suite of projects that is resource loaded with defined roles first and people filled in as resources once they are assigned.  I have a stacked histogram set up to show by resource and by role separately. Is there a way to combine that function in p6? I need to be able to choose a role and show that stacked histogram for say "engineers" and have the stack be bob, suzy, joe, fred, etc., excluding "project managers" and "designers", for instance.

first filter for the activities that have the people assigned that you are looking for then

view resource usage profile on the lower portin of the screen on the left hand side select the upside down triangle and select 

Select view then by role

I want to be able to filter out the role and see a stacked histogram of people within that role/discipline.

Right now, I can see stacked histogram by role or stacked histogram by resource but I can't figure out how to filter if I need a certain role broken out by only the people assigned there.

when you view the resource usage profle NO  NOT select the role but the resource name. In the left portion of the resource usage profile you can group and sort on resouce NOT ROLE
