The following chart parameters can be changed:
●
Background Color — You can specify whether the backdrop of the
chart is a solid color or whether it is displayed as a gradient, a
smooth transition from one color to another. The gradient transition
can be one of the following: Horizontal, Vertical, Rectangle, or
Oval. The quality of the gradient effect will vary depending on the
video card installed in the PC, or the capabilities of the printer for
printed reports.
●
Options — Select the check boxes, as appropriate, to include or
omit grid lines, chart borders, and legend borders on the report.
●
Real-Time — If the chart is part of a real-time report and is a rolling
chart, you can specify the number of data points to be displayed in
the chart. Permitted values are 2 through 100, with 10 being the
default. A rolling chart is a line chart that is initially displayed with no
data points. For each refresh of the report, a data point is added. As
data points are added, the chart “rolls” from left to right. When
enough refreshes have occurred that the chart is displaying the
number of specified data points, at the next refresh, the oldest data
point is dropped from the display and the newest data point is
displayed.
