Missing bar when last value is 0

If I do:

bar(range(3), [1,0,2])

… then I get 2 bars of a suitable width for a 3 bar chart, with a gap in between where the middle bar would be if not equal to 0. Yet if I do:

bar(range(3), [1,2,0])

… then I get two bars of equal width. Is there a way to preserve the space for the missing bar?

This is an autoscaling issue, I think. Your best bet is to explicitly set the x limits yourself.

Yes, that works. Many thanks.
