What is a Bar Chart?
A Bar Chart is a Console Widget in which the numerical data per Athlete for a Parameter is visually represented by the length of a rectangle. A Bar Chart can be created for any OpenField Parameter.
It is recommended that only 1 to 3 parameters are selected for a single Bar Chart. A Bar Chart can be used to display data for selected Athletes for a specific Period or for the whole Activity.
