          data: [1, 2],
          visual: function(e) {
            //create the default visual
            var visual = e.createVisual();
            //scale it so that it has the predefined size
            visual.transform(kendo.geometry.transform().scale(1, BAR_SIZE / e.rect.size.height, e.rect.center() ));
            return visual;
          }
        }]
