The Chart dashboard item includes the following series types.
-
A

Line
series display data as standalone points or points joined by a line.

An
Area
series displays data by a line that joins points, and the shaded area between the line and the argument axis.

A

series is the area between two simple series displayed as a shaded area, or bars that stretch from a point in one series to the corresponding point in another series.
