the above makes little sense the height should be >= lc.y + lc.width and the 
width >= lx.x + lc.height

for me the above makes no sense. It moves things below the bottom of the image. 
I assume you are using this in some larger art board or a translated canvas 
where this still allows the image to be seen.

I added
            drawing.add(lc)

I am seeing only a white line on top of the bar chart, but only when I added the 
line chart after the bar chart. Again

This code is showing both charts for me, but in an A4(nearly) sized drawing
