Hi at all,  
I would like to know how it is possible to calculate the sum of two bars) which represent, for example, true and false) by creating a new bar that is their sum having the same aggregator

hi @mad-max,

you can do that by using the "Filters" aggregation. Create three filters, one for each condition.

It could look something like:

you could also split the series to give them different colors:

Be sure to unstack them then (mode=normal):
