Hello guys, I am trying to use the code bellow to display 2 graphic bars, one on line 0 and another on line 2 with some text on line 1 and another text on line3. I cannot get the bar graph to work on line 2 nomatter what I do.
If I put the two garph bars one on line 0 and the other one on line 1 or line 3 it works but not on line 2.
I really need it to be on line 2.
Anyone could help me?
Thanks
Filipe
