Parameters

  • id: the object's ID, used by UISets. Required
  • position: the object's position. Use the pixels or rows and columns coordinates format
  • size: the chart's area's width and height
  • attributes: list of UI attribute ids and values defining the chart's aspect and data. Setting this parameter is the same as setting each UI attribute with a UISet

Chart types

The type attributes defines the way the values are displayed.

Type Result Description
bars UI Object chart bars.jpg Draw bars
gauge UI Object chart gauge.jpg Draw a gauge, for charts with a single value. Use with the "value" attribute
points UI Object chart points.jpg Draws points
line UI Object chart line.jpg Draws a line connecting the values
spline UI Object chart spline.jpg Draws a spline connecting the values

Syntax

(chart!<id> <address>; <position>; <width>; <height>; <attributes>)

E.g.

(chart!chart1 x3y187; 312; 180; (type=line; values=0,10,24,12,7,35,42,1,23,4))
