Chart Gallery

The chart gallery has all available series types. For each series, you may choose either a standard, function or extended series type. Note most extended series types are not supported at this time.

Standard series


Function series
Functions are independent series that use other series for their data values. For example if you define a line series 'A' which has various values and then define a series 'B' which contains the function Max(A), then you will be using series 'A' as the input for the new series. The Max(A) function will scan the data from series A to find the maximum value then plot its own data as that value. The series type of the function is configurable; you may use any series type to represent your function data provided that the series type mix on the chart is allowed according to the general rules for combining series types

Select a function series type using the mouse or the cursor keys and press OK. You may also double-click any series type. The selected function series type will be added to the chart. Initially, the function series will be a line chart. You can change this to any of the supported chart series types (line, bar, area, pie, and horizontal bar). 

After adding a function series, move to the Data Source tab within the Series tab to choose the dependent series for this function.
