Enhancing a charts' design
Charts inserted with a wizard always have the same layout. The amCharts library that is
integrated in Connect has loads of options to layout charts differently. Here's how to make use
of those options.
Start by opening the Chart Properties dialog. Right-click the chart (in the template, or in the
Outline pane) and select Chart.
Every tab menu in the Chart Properties dialog, except the last one, gives direct access to a
number of layout options. For a description of the options see:
l "Bar Chart Properties dialog" on page937
l "Line Chart Properties dialog" on page967
l "Pie Chart Properties dialog" on page982
Adding and editing properties manually
The last tab menu in the Chart Properties dialog, the Source tab, reflects the choices made in
the other tabs. More importantly, this tab gives you the possibility to add any amCharts
configuration option that is unavailable via the other tab menus.
On the Source tab, all settings are given in JSON. For example:
{
"type": "pie",
"legend": {
"enabled": false
},
"radius": "100",
