Taco HTML Edit Help > Component Library > Bar Graph
Show graph data on a web page in the form of a bar graph.

The graph is generated and drawn entirely on the web browser client. Using PHP or other server-side languages, one can populate the graph with customized data, by adjusting the JavaScript that is included in the web page with the component. After inserting the component, find the line of JavaScript code beginning with "layout.addDataset", and populate custom data from the server when generating the page.

Axis Line Color
The color of both axes.

Left Padding
The padding between the vertical axis and the left side of the canvas.
Bottom Padding
The padding between the horizontal axis the bottom of the canvas.
Value Label Format
The numerical precision of label values on the value axis. Values can be rounded to whole numbers, tenths, hundredths, or thousandths.
Number of Value Ticks
The number of ticks (and hence, the number of labels) that should appear on the value axis.
Use Default Min/Max Value
Should the minimum and maximum values on the value axis automatically be determined from the data? Note that if this option is enabled, the min/max values are computed in the web browser client when the page is loaded, so they will adapt to any changes made in the graph data after the component is inserted.
Min Value Tick
If Use Default Min/Max Value is not selected, the minimum value represented on the value axis.
Max Value Tick
If Use Default Min/Max Value is not selected, the maximum value represented on the value axis.
Number of Bar Types
Corresponds to the number of bars that will appear for each label. This option should be greater than 1 when you want to describe multiple aspects for a data element. For example, if each data element represents a product, you might specify 2 for Number of Bar Types: one value describing the price before tax and one describing the price after tax.
Values per Bar Type
The number of labels, i.e., the number of times each bar type will appear.
Labels
The text label to describe an individual data element.
Values
The data values for the selected bar type. The number of values corresponds to the value of Values per Bar Type.
