A chart is a component on a Spotlight page that shows data as a graphical image.

Notes:

If there is a down arrow alongside the chart title then the chart supports more than one category of data. Click the title or arrow to open a drop-down list of all available categories. Click an item in this list to display information related to that category.
Hover the mouse pointer over a data point in the chart to display information about that point.
Hover the mouse pointer over an item (line or area) in the chart to display the name of the item.
When the chart is zoomed so that not all of a chart can be seen at the one time, the chart also displays scrollbars that allow you to choose the visible portion of the chart.
