Alternative to stacked bar chart?

I have a stacked bar chart that show the annual popularity of 10 different training schemes over 10 years (colour coded for each training scheme) However, the journal I'm planning on submitting to doesn't permit bar charts. I'm looking for alternatives options? I tried just a simple line chart but the problem is that one training scheme dominates the others in terms of popularity (accounts for 60%-80%). So the others are crammed into the other part and they all have similar popularity so it's messy. Any suggestions? Other caveat is that some of the training schemes only have data available for 2-3 years

Automatic progressive filtering

My goal is to show cumulative incoming $ year-to-date, on a daily basis, as a presentable video that automatically adjusts visuals according to date. I have accomplished this in PowerBI (refer to video attached), but it is very snappy, rapid, and laggy when more data is loaded. Im looking for a software to do this with where the transition from one day to the next is smooth. Does anyone have any ideas for me? Thanks!

Chart to use for showing overlapping data?

Hi everyone - I'm looking to create a visualization for clusters with overlapping data. For example, I may have 4 basket, each with their own type of fruit and I'm trying to show which baskets contain the same type of fruit.

I've been researching and came across diagrams like the Chord diagram and Radial Set diagram that comes close to what I'm looking to show, but not quite. Does anyone have any thoughts on what type of visualization would work best?

I came up with this possible diagram below where each colored line represents the type of fruit. This chart would be interactive so when somebody hovers over a colored line, it will highlight the line by fading all the others out and show information on what type of fruit it is. Not quite sure if this is the best and clearest way to show overlapping data among different entities though.

Thanks in advance!
