I have to create Graphs like this image below, I tried to use gnuplot and zplot to create this, but the patterns are not as expected. Did someone know some library or anything to create this pattern(as image bellow). I appreciate for that. Thanks

What you need is the following histogram type with different fill style patterns
For example if you would want a black&white stacked histogram, then you could create them by doing the following:
file1 = 'hist1.dat'
set style data histogram
set style histogram rowstack
set style fill pattern
set xtics border in scale 0,0 nomirror rotate by 90 offset character 0, -6, 0
set boxwidth 0.9 absolute
set key outside right top vertical Left
set key samplen 2.5 spacing 0.85
set ylabel "Cost BreakDown (%)" font ",18" offset character 2.5,0,0
plot newhistogram , file1 u 2:xtic(1) t "Math" lc rgbcolor "black" lt 1 fs pattern 1, '' u 3 t "Innvocation" lc rgbcolor "black" lt 1 fs pattern 2
where the contents of file1 could be like this
Read-GetAttr 19 12
Read-If-Mod 47 23
The above will render the following graphic:
You can further add more layers on the stack by having the corresponding data and changing the fillstyle pattern fs
. Further you can also change them to coloured histograms by using different rgbcolor
values
Posting this here in case this may be useful for someone else in the future:
I also pulled up some work that I did previously, You can download a complete working example of coloured stacked Histograms with data files and gnuplot script from the following link:
