-categoryPercentage | Number | 0.8 | Percent (0-1) of the available width (the space between the gridlines for small datasets) for each data-point to use for the bars.
-barPercentage | Number | 0.9 | Percent (0-1) of the available width each bar should be within the category percentage. 1.0 will take the whole category width and put the bars right next to each other.

+#### barPercentage vs categoryPercentage
+
+The following shows the relationship between the bar percentage option and the category percentage option.
+
+```text
+// categoryPercentage: 1.0
+// barPercentage: 1.0
+Bar: | 1.0 | 1.0 |
+Category: | 1.0 |
+Sample: |===========|
+
+// categoryPercentage: 1.0
+// barPercentage: 0.5
+Bar: |.5| |.5|
+Category: | 1.0 |
+Sample: |==============|
+
+// categoryPercentage: 0.5
+// barPercentage: 1.0
+Bar: |1.||1.|
+Category: | .5 |
+Sample: |==============|
