Any way to show drop offs vs currently active?

Hi, thanks for this great library.

In a process, there will be some items that move forward and some that drop off, and additionally some that are currently active but have not reached the bottom rung yet for whatever reason. Currently, we are not able to differentiate between the latter 2 in the chart. Any way to represent something like this?

Hey there. If I understand correctly, you would like for some way to visually represent a group that is outside of the traditional funnel shape, such as something off to the side? If so, there is not a mechanism in this library to allow for such a visual separation.

@jakezatecky thanks for your reply. That's not exactly what I had in mind. Take this example:

Leads

As you can see, there are 1209 leads that started off as prospects. Out of those 601 progressed to the evaluation stage. So far so good with the currently available chart.

The part that is missing is how to differentiate between those that are no longer prospects, i.e. the 200 that have been retired as they are not interested, and the 408 that are currently active prospects that are yet to move forward in the process.

The "bar overlay" feature allows you to visually show the number of leads that have progressed, would be great if it could be enhanced to show currently active vs abandoned as well.
