Chart Plot Area

CATEGORY: Reporting
CLASS: Charts
The area of a FileMaker 11 chart between the X and Y axis is referred to as the plot area. This is smaller than the overall size of the chart object because the chart element may also include the chart title, legend, x-axis title, y-axis title and y-axis scale.
The term comes into play when you are trying to determine how many x-axis categories you can fit into the determined plot area and still make the charts result useful to its audience.
