Property Pages

 

Property Pages provide a convenient means of viewing and modifying parameters through a graphical user interface.

XY Chart contains 5 main property pages - General, Plot, X-Axes, Y-Axes, and Profiles.  Each page allows you to view and/or edit a set of related properties to customize the look and behaviour of your control.  

There are four command buttons at the bottom of each property page - OK, Cancel, Apply, and Help.  OK allows you to save any changes made and close the Property Pages window.  Cancel closes the Property Pages window without saving any changes.  If a change has been made, the Apply button becomes enabled.  Apply saves any changes made without closing the Property Pages window.  The Apply button then becomes disabled.  NOTE: An Apply is performed when toggling between pages.  Finally, select Help to bring up the XY Chart Help file.
