too many values on x axis...enfore horizontal scroll?

Hi,
 
I have too many values on x axis and the bars are not readable. What I would like to do is enforce some space between bars so that each bar label is readable along with value and enfore horizontal scroll so that a user can scroll through all values. My question is
 
1) How to enfore a constant width between bards
2) how to enforce horizontal scroll on charts

I've done something for this before by making several charts based on an interval, then using client side javascript to create a scrolling effect by hiding and showing charts based on click of left or right arrows. You might try placing a chart in a grid with the overflow of the grid cell set to scroll and see if it works properly when the chart is too big for the space. You could also look at this devshare for resizing your chart based on the bars in it. <a data-ipb='nomediaparse' href='http://developer.actuate.com/community/forum/index.php?/files/file/793-resize-bar-chart-based-on-the-number-of-bars/'>http://developer.actuate.com/community/forum/index.php?/files/file/793-resize-bar-chart-based-on-the-number-of-bars/</a> Let me know if you have further questions.

Forgot to mention that BIRT Designer Professional has HTML5 charting that allows you to zoom in, which might solve this issue for you, as well. <a data-ipb='nomediaparse' href='http://www.actuate.com/products/birt-designers/birt-designer-pro/'>http://www.actuate.com/products/birt-designers/birt-designer-pro/</a>
