Spanish term

barras de evolución

Spanish to English Marketing Computers: Software Gráficos.
It's in the context of a user manual. Comparative data of a bank and its competitors shown through graphs.

In this paragraph:


"Con la opción de Settings, los usuarios pueden escoger distintos intervalos de tiempo para ser utilizados como referencia en las barras de evolución mostradas en la gráfica de velocímetros."

Provisionally, I see this way:

"With the Settings option, users can select different time intervals to use them as reference in the temporal strips/evolution bars shown in the gauges chart."

progress bars

A progress bar is a component in a graphical user interface used to visualize the progression of an extended computer operation, such as a download, file transfer, or installation. Sometimes, the graphic is accompanied by a textual representation of the progress in a percent format.

If the graphs are displayed on screen, which I'm assuming is the case here...

In general, I try to avoid "evolution" when it simply means the "progress" of a project, etc .

bar charts

Creo que el texto en inglés es un poco redundante. Simplemente lo traduciría como "bar charts"
