Suggestion for bar chart

Hello everyone,

I don’t now where can i make suggestion about upgrade for future update so i make one here.

In time serie it’s possible to select a time periode by selecting it direclty on the time serie.

But it look like it’s not possible with a bar chart, is it possible to do it and i just miss it, or maybe it should be add in a future upgrade.

Do you have time dimension in your “barchart”? How is defined that “barchart” - is it barchart panel (so no time dimension):

Or is it timeseries panel (so time dimension is there) and it is only visualized in the bars?

Yer this got me too when I was first started so I had to rebuild a lot of our dash from “bar chart” to “time series”.

If your data has time series, use “Time Series > Bars style” and not the “Bar chart”

From Grafana Play below:

But the thing i don’t like is that the bar are stack,

However for simplicity i need bar next to each other, wich i succesfully made with barchart but not with time series with bars style

it’s a Barchart panel type, i have a ‘timestamp’ data wich i use for time dimension

So that’s a reason. You are expecting timeseries panel feature in different panel type.
Suggestion: try to find another panel type, which have everything what you need

Yeah I have faced this dilemna too as the time series does not have an effective side-by-side bars.

How many bars do you have?

As the workaround I have done for mine is to play around the alignment and group the bars that can be logically stacked.

Time dimension or month/date derived from date time data value?
