Two kinds of rules

You can distinguish two sets of style rules:

  • Rules that customize the global appearance of the chart.

These rules are applied to the elements of the chart, such as chart area, legend, scales and grids. You can find a detailed description in the section Styling the Chart Component.

  • Rules that control how individual data series or data objects are rendered.

These rules are applied to the graphical representation of data points. You can find a detailed description in Styling the data series.
