# Bar gauge
The bar gauge simplifies your data by reducing every field to a single value. You choose how Grafana calculates the reduction.
This panel can show one or more bar gauges depending on how many series, rows, or columns your query returns.

## Value options
Use the following options to refine how your visualization displays the value:
### Show
Choose how Grafana displays your data.
#### Calculate
Show a calculated value based on all rows.
- **Calculation -** Select a reducer function that Grafana will use to reduce many fields to a single value. For a list of available calculations, refer to [Calculation types]({{< relref "../panels/calculation-types/" >}}).
- **Fields -** Select the fields display in the panel.
#### All values
Show a separate stat for every row. If you select this option, then you can also limit the number of rows to display.
- **Limit -** The maximum number of rows to display. Default is 5,000.
- **Fields -** Select the fields display in the panel.
## Bar gauge options
Adjust how the bar gauge is displayed.
### Orientation
Choose a stacking direction.
- **Auto -** Grafana selects what it thinks is the best orientation.
- **Horizontal -** Bars stretch horizontally, left to right.
- **Vertical -** Bars stretch vertically, bottom to top.
### Display mode
Choose a display mode.
- **Gradient -** Threshold levels define a gradient.
- **Retro LCD -** The gauge is split into small cells that are lit or unlit.
- **Basic -** Single color based on the matching threshold.
### Show unfilled area
Select this if you want to render the unfilled region of the bars as dark gray. Not applicable to Retro LCD display mode.
### Min width
Limit the minimum width of the bar column in the vertical direction.
Automatically show x-axis scrollbar when there is a large amount of data.
### Min height
Limit the minimum height of the bar row in the horizontal direction.
Automatically show y-axis scrollbar when there is a large amount of data.
