[R] Question on plotting with googleVis

[Christofer Bogaso]

Hi Arnaud,

Thanks for your answer.

However I prefer to have Horizontal bar chart, because length of the
strings for x-axis are quite large, therefore it would be better to
put them vertically one-below-another instead horizontally.

Therefore I would really appreciate if someone points me how to
control the max and min values for x-axis.

Thanks and regards,
