Bar chart

Bar charts are the standard charts in hila. Bar charts shows data in rectangular bars with lengths proportional to the values they represent.

1. The controls for the chart are:

   1. Copy chart.

   2. Hover over a bar to see the value.

   3. Select an item in the legend to toggle the visibility. This is particularly helpful if the answers are difficult to see because they have different scales or different units.

   

Combo chart (bar and line)
