How to make the horizontal stacked bar graph in budgeting/planning?

I see in the online videos screens that have a darker green bar for a category followed by a lighter green bar. Each has numbers in the bar. I'm curious what this means and how I might be able to implement it.

I think it has to do with the scheduled vs. the actual as you say. It's not big but if I could get that feature to show it would be great.
If you have scheduled transactions (aka reminders) remaining for your budgeted categories, perhaps you haven't checked Include reminders: select Budget Actions > View Options5

You appear to be referring to the Graph view of a budget. The dark green is the actual spending and the light green is the scheduled spending for the period. Green indicates we have not exceeded the budgeted amount.
To create your first budget, select the Planning tab, the Budgets view, and Get Started.0 -
