Kibana: Bar-displayed metrics can be displayed as shifted to the right if not displayed as first metric

[cvillerm]

Kibana version: 5.5.0

Browser version: Firefox, Chrome...

Original install method (e.g. download page, yum, from source, etc.): Elastic Cloud evaluation (and also observed based on ELK Docker image)

Description of the problem including expected versus actual behavior:

When creating a visualization with a timestamp-based Date histogram as X-Axis bucket, adding a metrics (Y-Axis) as bar and another one as line results in the bar-displayed metrics to be shifted to the right if it is added in second position.

Example:

• bar-displayed metrics listed first: both metrics are aligned horizontally, as expected
  

• bar-displayed metrics listed second: bar metrics is shifted to the right (not expected)
  

Is this something expected based on the priority of metrics or is this an actual issue?

:+1: This is 100% reproducible and one of our users hits the problem on a very regular basis. Any hope of getting this addressed?

Still occuring in Kibana 5.6.10

Same there (Kibana 7.5.2):

This is still reproducible on 7.9.1, as long as the bar chart is not the first series in this combination. @nickofthyme could you verify, that the elastic charts implementation, does no longer have this issue? If it's data fetching related we can/should fix it already before merging the new xyaxis chart.

@timroes I confirm that it will be solved with the elastic charts implementation 🎉

Thanks @stratoula I missed this mention.
