Overview

The Chart Macro. Create one or more interactive trends with different y-axes, scales, time ranges and layouts. 

To insert a chart select "Chart" from the insert menu.  Below are some starting hints.  Don't forget to try out both left and right mouse clicks to see what's there.

You can add tags by either dragging and dropping them from elsewhere, for example either from search results or from the Basket or by manually adding them via the "Add Tags" option in the settings  menu.  Use the lock icon to lock and unlock the trend area so you can zoom and scroll axis (time and magnitude).

Have a look at the other configuration options in the  settings button.  Click on the arrow at the bottom to view the detailed legend where you can change series colours and axes and change the data and plot types.

The handle at the bottom of the trend lets you change the height.
