This example demonstrates horizontal bar meters in different orientations.
In a horizontal bar meter, the scale labels can be positioned above the meter scale or below it. This is controlled by the last argument to
LinearMeter.setMeter, which can be
Top or
Bottom,
The title and value readout added using
BaseChart.addText can be put at any position. In this example, we put them at the opposite side to the scale labels.
