Bar graph chart from scratch

Both of the chart plugins suck. A problem they share is it’s hard to figure out how to adjust them, if adjustment is even possible.

So I made my own chart from scratch using other Bubble elements.

The heart of this chart is a repeating group with a progress bar in each cell. Since you can turn progress bars 90 degrees you could probably make a bar chart with vertical bars, but you can’t control the horizontal width of a horizontal repeating group, so I don’t think it would be much use.

The trick is to use several different inputs to hold different steps of this equation, which translates and scales the dataset to fit into the available space.

Wow great. I might just follow your example

Very creative solution! : )

It would have been really neat to vary the color of the bars, but the progress bar element doesn’t have dynamic colors…yet? @emmanuel
