Bar Chart Props

Basic props

Prop	Type	Description	Default value
data	Array of items	An item object represents a bar in the bar chart. It is described in the next table.	_
width	number	Width of the Bar chart	width of the parent
height	number	Height of the Bar chart (excluding the bottom label)	200
maxValue	number	Maximum value shown in the Y axis	200
noOfSections	number	Number of sections in the Y axis	10
stepValue	number	Value of 1 step/section in the Y axis	20
stepHeight	number	Height of 1 step/section in the Y axis	20
spacing	number	Distance between 2 consecutive bars in the Bar chart	20
backgroundColor	ColorValue	Background color of the Bar chart	_
disableScroll	Boolean	To disable horizontal scroll	false
showScrollIndicator	Boolean	To show horizontal scroll indicator	false

---

Alert!
These props are correlated:

1. maxValue
2. noOfSections
3. stepValue

They must follow the relation:

maxValue = noOfSections * stepValue

So, all the three must be used together. Using any 1 or 2 of them may produce absurd results
