Use the Statistics under chart dialog to temporarily override the default statistics that display beneath a chart on a charting window and on a printed chart. You can also opt to print a chart without the statistics.
You can assign default settings to charts in the GainSeeker System Administration module. See Chart Defaults settings
Note: This setting and all other settings located in the Chart overrides node of the Settings dialog can be saved as a chart skin that you can apply to any charts. For more information, see Chart Skins
Note: To display statistics under a chart on your computer screen, the Show statistics list under chart option must be selected on the Settings tab.
The default chart settings can be changed in the GainSeeker Administration module so that statistics automatically display under any new charts that are created.
Note: Statistics display beneath Combination charts and Performance charts by GainSeeker default. You can temporarily override this by clearing the checkbox preceding the Show Statistics list under chart setting on the Settings dialog when a chart is open.
GainSeeker automatically displays statistics beneath a printed chart (even if they are not set to display on the computer screen). The statistics list that prints with a specific chart can be changed using the Statistics under chart dialog. You can also opt to display no statistics with a printed chart.
You can also change the statistics that print by default with a chart by changing the default chart settings in the GainSeeker Administration module.
