 * Hello! First, thank you for the great plugin. I like it very much. I am having
   difficulty getting the bar graph to animate. This is my shortcode: [wp_charts
   title=”barchart” type=”bar” margin=”0 auto” colors=”#5a6eab” datasets=”90,90,80,75,75,75,60,45,35″
   labels=”Photoshop »,Illustrator »,HTML/CSS »,Wordpress »,Photography »,InDesign»,
   Java/JQuery/PHP»,Other Code »,Misc. Software »” width=”100%” fillopacity=”0.5″
   animation=>’true’]
    I have tried many things, including animation=’true’, animation
   =”true”, animation=true. My page is at: [http://monsheridesign.com/about](http://monsheridesign.com/about)
   Also, is there a way to compact the height of the chart at all? Ass a max-height
   or something? I tried that every way I could think of. Any ideas? Thank you.

 * Hey
 * Just posted your shortcode into a fresh install of 2014 and the animation seems
   to be working fine. I’ll continue to test but seems to work fine here.
 * theres a good chance the animation is happening during your preloading where 
   the page is covered with the js preloader spash screen.
 * with regards to its shape you can set the chart to have asymmetrical proportions
   by using the width, height, canvaswidth, canvasheight and relativewidth properties,
   check the installation tab for usage instructions.
 * Thanks for the great feedback, I hope this was helpful. Let me know how you get
   on.
 * Kind Regards
 * Paul
