Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

PR #979 makes bar ranges related to the meters/groups involved. This is an improvement since the last bar now, in general, has data that includes all the time of the bar. This does introduce an issue if you are graphing groups and meters together where the end time for the two categories differ. All the meters and all the groups align in time but they may not align with each other. This can happen, for example, if the time range on the graphic is larger than the meter or group first chosen and the second one goes farther in time. The second one will use the later time so the bars may not align.

Describe the solution you'd like

In a perfect world, all meters and groups in a single bar graphic would align so they are all the same time in the same grouping of a bar.

Note you can detect this issue if you do bar stacking since bars with different time ranges do no stack. Given this and the unusual circumstance that leads to this issue, it is not a high priority to fix.

Describe alternatives you've considered

I have thought some about solutions but none are trivial and fast. Thus, this is opened so others can suggest ideas and I plan to add mine in the future.

Additional context

Given the magnitude of the likely change (if we make one), this is a post v1.0.0 item. I have added information about this to the help page for bar graphics that will be used for v1.0.0.
