Operating System: Windows 11

I am trying to use Python to generate a stacked column (aka stacked bar) graph, using a template I have made. However, I am having trouble working out the correct way to import the data to accomplish this.

If I use Code Sample 1 (shown below), the two columns are plotted superimposed on each other (rather than stacked). If I use Code Sample 2 (shown below) the two columns are plotted side-by-side rather than stacked.

If anyone knows how to do this such that the columns appear stacked, please would you advise me?

Code Sample 1
gl.add_plot(data_wks, coly=1, colx=0, type='?')
gl.add_plot(data_wks, coly=2, colx=0, type='?')

Code Sample 2
gl.add_plot(data_wks, coly=1, colx=0, type='?')
gl.add_plot(data_wks, coly=2, colx=0, type='?')
gl.group(True, 0, 1)

Could you add one line after code sample 2 to set the plots to stack cumulatively?
op.lt_exec('layer -b s 1')

I gave this a try and it worked perfectly, thank you very much!

Also, in case it helps anyone else, the code that worked for me was slightly different to that which was provided:

gl.lt_exec('layer -b s 1')

A follow up question: Is it possible to change the column spacing using Python?

gl.lt_exec('set %C -vg 40')

Here 40 is the percentage gap.
