Description

**What's your use case?**

Often Bar Plots have categories that are names. They are difficult to render along the _x_ axis, but will fit well along the _y_ axis (see attached chart from Excel).

![HorizontalBarplot](https://user-images.githubusercontent.com/10616212/145013078-80883c53-3e14-4176-b057-f78d1b744cbd.png)

**What's your proposed solution?**

It should be possible to add a checkbox to the Bar Plot to render the bars horizontally.

**Are there any alternative solutions?**
