How do I hide the heat map gradient bar?  
How can I implement Custom range for the bar colors

0 - 30 = red  
31 - 60 = orange  
61-100 = green

Don't use the heatmap option  
Add a key holding color value in your dataSources. Assign that key to `Series[x].column.appearance.deriveFieldsFromData.fill.color`

Following is small example for reference.
