Re: HorizontalBarChart(), align, categoryAxis.categoryNames

Hi Helga,

you can try something like this

> 		self.chart.y                = 20
> 		self.chart.x                = 100
> 		self.chart.width            = self.width -self.chart.x -10

effectively we turn the boxAnchor the wrong way and then adjust the anchor 
position with the generic label dx
