>>> The above data is just the serial numbers of station numbers (xnos) and corresponding percent of outliers from the whole dataset of that particular station. In this case, I have 99 stations and I just wanted to visualize the bars to distinguish the station that is providing with most outlier data. Hence, I wanted to use the bar plot for more xtickvalues. I don't know how I can change this limitation in cgBarplot.pro.
