+The link:{DataChartLink}.RangeBarSeries.html[RangeBarSeries] is a xamDataChart series type that displays value ranges as horizontal bars. It is the bar-oriented counterpart to the link:{DataChartLink}.RangeColumnSeries.html[RangeColumnSeries].
+
+Range Bar Series uses a link:{DataChartLink}.CategoryYAxis.html[CategoryYAxis] for categories and a link:{DataChartLink}.NumericXAxis.html[NumericXAxis] for values, with each bar spanning from a low value to a high value on the X axis.
