The Chart inspector contains the following notebook pages:

The first and the last pages (General and Callbacks) apply to all graphic objects in general while the others are specific to the chart objects. You will use these pages to define the various elements of a chart.

As you will notice in the illustrations, a number of general-purpose icons are available on some of the Chart inspector pages. These icons are described in the next section and each of the notebook pages is presented in the sections that follow.
