# Chart properties

These properties define the **general layout and appearance** of the chart displayed within the chart element. You can adjust the title, style (2D/3D), colors, and 3D visualization settings to achieve the desired look for your data visualization.

## **Properties Overview**

| **Property**               | **Description**                                                                                                                                                    |
| -------------------------- | ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------ |
| **Title**                  | The text displayed above the chart. Use the **alignment buttons** to set the horizontal alignment of the title.                                                    |
| **Font**                   | Displays the current **font and style** for the chart title. Click the button next to the text box to open the **font dialog box** and make adjustments.           |
| **Color**                  | Sets the **text color** of the chart title.                                                                                                                        |
| **2D Chart**               | Displays the real-time data using a **two-dimensional (2D)** chart format.                                                                                         |
| **3D Chart**               | Displays the real-time data using a **three-dimensional (3D)** chart format for a more dynamic visual effect.                                                      |
| **Light Source**           | Sets the **lighting effect** applied to the 3D chart, affecting shadows and highlights.                                                                            |
| **Chart Background Color** | Selects the **background color** of the chart area. Options include **solid color, gradient, texture, or pattern**. See *Using the color picker* for more details. |
| **Chart Depth**            | Defines the **depth** of the 3D chart, adjusting the viewing angle and visual perception of depth.                                                                 |
| **Horizontal Rotation**    | Controls the **rotation of the 3D chart around the X and Y axes**, altering its horizontal viewing angle.                                                          |
| **Vertical Rotation**      | Controls the **rotation of the 3D chart around the X and Z axes**, adjusting its vertical tilt.                                                                    |
| **Perspective View**       | Enables perspective mode to adjust how the 3D chart is angled in relation to the viewer.                                                                           |
| **Angle**                  | Sets the **perspective angle (in degrees)** for the 3D chart, affecting how extreme or mild the perspective is.                                                    |

## **Remarks**

* **2D and 3D chart modes** allow for flexible visualization depending on your presentation needs.
* Adjusting **rotation and perspective** properties can give depth and dynamic visualization to the 3D chart.
* **Color and font options** help align the chart's appearance with the overall presentation design.
* **Light source settings** enhance the realism of 3D charts by simulating lighting effects.
