XY Chart

The XY Chart, while similar to the Timeseries Chart, uses a numerical value for the Domain Axis instead of a Datetime. The XY chart is ideal when trying to detail the relationship between two keys.

Property	Description
Data Key	Unique identifier or placeholder to the data source that will populate the chart.
Domain Key	The data key that should represent the X axis on the chart. The Timeseries Chart expects a timestamp, while the XY chart can use any numeric value as the domain key.
Pens	Pens represent a series of data. There are several properties for each pen exposed on the Chart Options tab: Range Key: The key the pen should retrieve data from. Pen Name: The name of the pen that should appear on the chart. Preview: Visual representation of how the pen will be rendered. The trend is simply a preview, and does not take the data from the range key into account.
Add Pen	Adds a pen.
Edit Pen	Opens Pen Configuration area for editing.
Remove Pen	Deletes a pen.
Axes	There are several properties for each axis exposed on the Chart Options tab: Name: The name of the axis. Label: Text next to the axis. Commonly used to describe what the values of each pen represent. Auto?: Determines if the axis should automatically adjust the upper and lower bound of the axis to include all data from each pen. When enabled, the High and Low properties are ignored. When disabled, High and Low will be used. Low: The low range value the axis will use when 'Auto?' is disabled. High: The high range value the axis will use when 'Auto?' is disabled.
