This chapter shows and explains how to use the Multi Chart setting.
Contents
Since SimAssist version 4.0 it is possible to create Multi Charts. This functionality is available in the plug-in SimChart.
As soon as an element is present in the column area of the pivot fields, the Multi Chart functionality can be activated via the context menu of this column (right click on the element) (see Figure 1 and 2).

The charts are drawn on the basis of the content of the respective element. The column FLG_Status contains the entries Anflug, Gelandet and Gepäckausgabe.
For each of these entries, a separate chart is created by activating the functionality (see Figure 3).

For display and arrangement there are various options which can be configured in the Chart Designer.
The following figures show an example of how the newly created charts can be arranged in different ways.

An additional feature that has been added by the use of Multi Charts is the ability to use different chart types in one chart.
This is also possible without activating the Multi Chart. The following example shows a simple chart, with two columns in the data area of the pivot fields (see Figure 6).

Afterwards the desired series can be marked via the Chart Designer on the left side in the area Series (also possible via direct selection by clicking on the desired element in the middle).
The desired display form can be selected via the drop down of the point View.

The changes are accepted by clicking on OK and the new chart with different chart types is displayed in the plug-in.
