text scales on bar graphs

I set out to make a bar graph with text scale labels today and was shocked to discover that is not built into Labview.  I see the feature was requested back in 2009, here.  I also see there are a few posts showing workarounds, the prettiest of which was Ben's, here.

 

I decided to post my own solution, which is based off of Ben's code.  I did the math a bit differently, and I manually set the graph scale's limits to show the first and last bars in full (as opposed to what happens when you use autoscaling: half of each of those two bars gets cut off).

 

I included 3 versions of the code (saved in Labview 2014):

-horizontal bar graph

-vertical bar graph with horizontal text

-vertical bar graph with vertical text
