The XY Chart displays data trends. It provides a flexible way to display either timeseries or X-Y data by entering data in the dataSources property. It is fully customizable in its appearance, from labels, colors, line widths, legend, scroll bars, and text styles.


Properties

Most Properties have binding options. For more information on Bindings, see Types of Bindings in Perspective.
This section only documents the Props Category of properties. The other Categories are described on the Perspective Component Properties page.

Component Events

Perspective Component Events
The Perspective Event Types Reference page describes all the possible component event types for Perspective components. Not all component events support each Perspective component. The Component Events and Actions page shows how to configure events and actions on a Perspective component. Component scripting is handled separately and can be accessed from the Component menubar or by right clicking on the component.
