status="ready" · 10 age bands, both sides on one shared scale; the dashed outline is the same census in 2021. Hover, or Tab into the chart and read band by band with ↑ ↓ Home End.

Headcount by age band · March 2026 — every band with Women and Men side by side on one shared scale of 0 to 600 people per side.

Both halves share one scale, 0 to 600 people per side, so a bar on the left and a bar on the right of the same length mean the same number. Point at a band, or Tab into the chart and use ↑ ↓ Home End, to read its numbers.

status="empty" · a valid contract with no bands at all — a different thing from "every band is 0" (see below).

Nothing to stack up yet

Bands appear once Women and Men both have counts to compare.

status="loading" · symmetric skeleton, aria-hidden, no timers involved.

status="error" · the fetch failed; "Try again" only appears when onRetry is passed, and clicking it flips to ready.

Couldn't load this chart

The data source didn't respond.

mode="share" · the same data, each side divided by its own total. Drawn by head count the right side is simply longer (916 more people); as shares the two silhouettes become comparable — the right is still visibly heavier above 40. Both totals stay printed on the chart, so the size difference is never hidden.

Headcount by age band · March 2026 — every band with Women and Men side by side on one shared scale of 0 to 30% per side. Values are each side's share of its own total.
Women		Age	Men
6.2%		18–24		5%
16.1%		25–29		14.1%
21.7%		30–34		19.9%

0.6%		65 and over		1.2%
	10%20%30%	0%	10%20%30%

Both halves share one scale, 0 to 30% per side, so a bar on the left and a bar on the right of the same length mean the same number. Each side is scaled by its own total. Point at a band, or Tab into the chart and use ↑ ↓ Home End, to read its numbers.

Degenerate data: every band is exactly equal left and right — a rectangle, not a pyramid. There is no most-skewed band to name, so the summary says so instead of manufacturing one out of floating-point noise.

Seats by floor

Identical fit-out on every floor — the degenerate case a pyramid has to survive

Desks200 units · 50%Lockers200 units · 50%

Seats by floor — every band with Desks and Lockers side by side on one shared scale of 0 to 40 units per side.
Desks		Floor	Lockers
40		Ground		40
40		First		40
40		Second		40
40		Third		40
40		Fourth		40
	10203040	0	10203040

Both halves share one scale, 0 to 40 units per side, so a bar on the left and a bar on the right of the same length mean the same number. Point at a band, or Tab into the chart and use ↑ ↓ Home End, to read its numbers.

Degenerate data: a single band with one side at 0. One number has to define the whole scale, and when the ratio (left ÷ right) is undefined the chart names the leading side rather than printing “∞×”.

Seats by contract length

One band holding everything, with nothing on the other side

Annual12,400 seats · 100%Monthly0 seats · 0%

Seats by contract length — every band with Annual and Monthly side by side on one shared scale of 0 to 15,000 seats per side.
Annual		Plan	Monthly
12,400		Enterprise		0
	5K10K15K	0	5K10K15K

Both halves share one scale, 0 to 15,000 seats per side, so a bar on the left and a bar on the right of the same length mean the same number. Point at a band, or Tab into the chart and use ↑ ↓ Home End, to read its numbers.

Degenerate data: every band is 0. There is no range to fit, so the scale falls back to a placeholder instead of dividing by zero, no bar has width, and the chart says outright that every reading is 0.

Defects by severity · this sprint

The query ran and every band came back zero — not the same thing as no bands at all

Open0 defects · 0%Closed0 defects · 0%

Defects by severity · this sprint — every band with Open and Closed side by side on one shared scale of 0 to 1 defects per side.
Open	Severity
0	Blocker	0
0	Critical	0
0	Major	0
0	Minor	0
	0

Both halves share one scale, 0 to 1 defects per side, so a bar on the left and a bar on the right of the same length mean the same number. Every band reads zero here, so the scale is a placeholder. Point at a band, or Tab into the chart and use ↑ ↓ Home End, to read its numbers.

Degenerate data: seven-digit values plus a very long band name. The number columns are sized to the widest formatted value, so every row's track is the same width; the band name truncates, with the full text kept in the row's accessible name and title.

Electorate by settlement type

Long labels and seven-digit counts, which is where a fixed layout usually breaks

Registered8,589,945 voters · 49.7%Turned out8,686,115 voters · 50.3%

Electorate by settlement type — every band with Registered and Turned out side by side on one shared scale of 0 to 6,000,000 voters per side.
Registered		Settlement	Turned out
4,218,440		Metropolitan core and inner suburbs		3,980,120

486,210		Rural and everything else		512,905
	2M4M6M	0	2M4M6M

Both halves share one scale, 0 to 6,000,000 voters per side, so a bar on the left and a bar on the right of the same length mean the same number. Point at a band, or Tab into the chart and use ↑ ↓ Home End, to read its numbers.

Invalid data: Q3's left is −120. A pyramid measures length outward from the centre axis, so a negative can only be drawn into the opposite half and read as the other side's data — the component refuses to plot it and names the offending band.

Movement by quarter

A net-change feed passed straight through — the one shape a pyramid cannot encode

This pyramid can't be drawn

"Q3" carries -120 as left. A pyramid measures magnitude outward from the axis, so a negative bar would point across it and read as the other cohort's data — pass the magnitude and let the two sides carry the direction.

showValues={false} + axisIntervals={2} · the compact, outline-only version: the two number columns collapse to zero width while the values stay sr-only in their own cells (the table is still complete for a screen reader) and the readout row is unchanged; two tick intervals make the scale coarser but tidier. As it narrows the tick lines stay put and only the labels thin themselves out — every other one first, then just the top of the range — never colliding.
