In our Qlik Demo Team we are trying to create mashups that are suitable for all devices. This is why we created another version of a Horizontal Bar Chart that we use almost exclusively. This has various options like setting the bar height, color, text color, text hover color etc. It can also change from regular Horizontal Bar Chart to Horizontal Stacked Bar Chart, Grouped Bar Chart or a Lollipop.

All of the UI/UX guidance is coming from my colleague Michael Anthony | Qlik
