Left and right slide bar chart only half and remove background grid

[AnChiChang]

I am new bar chart view user, and have two questions:

1. why my left slide and right side bar only half?
2. can I remove background grid from my BarChartView?

search old issue #1446
try fitBars

I fell like this comes up a lot. Why not have fitBars enabled by default?

[liuxuan30]

Me too. However I even found a new issue here:
In ChartsDemo Bar chart, fitBars is false, and it does not get cut off but just fewer left and right empty space. Weird.
@danielgindi would you please check this?

@AnChiChang at which commit you find the issue? Able to reproduce with ChartsDemo?

I had download iOS chart yesterday. However, I setup barChartView.fitBar = true at my callback function after load data from backend system, didn't work. After move the code to viewDidLoad then work perfect. That's my situation.

remember setup your chart properties before you call chartView.data = data or manually call notifyDataSetChanged

sure, thanks for reminding.

I don't think this is about fitBars, but about axis padding. Since a bar on the x=0 is actually centered on the 0, and half of it is to the left of 0...
So we have the axis padding to come to our help. It is by default 0.5 on both sides for bar charts. So I guess he is not using the release version...
