Selecting chart type
You specify the chart type in the Chart panel by selecting one of the
available chart types in the chart source menu option.
If you have a multiple Chart panel, the chart type is set individually
for each chart panel. Activate one of the chart panels, and then
select one of the available chart types in the chart source menu
option. Repeat the process for the second chart panel, and select an
alternative chart type for this panel.
If you have identical charts available - built in or in the card slot - the
system automatically selects the chart with most chart details for
your displayed region.

shown in the lower right corner of the chart panel.
Panning the chart
You can move the chart in any direction by dragging your finger on
the screen.
