So if I read this right, the relative heights of the xxx bars and the
yyy bars, which you have placed side by side, are in different units
and thus their comparison is meaningless. It's doable, but do you
really want this sort of graph? A better and much easier to implement
design seems to be something like
+-------------------------+---------------------+
Row 1 | xxxxxxxxxx | yyyyyyy |
Row 2 | xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx | yyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy |
+-------------------------+---------------------+
