Chart windows

Counter data is plotted on the upper right portion of the chart window.

When counters are added to the chart, a random color is chosen for each newly plotted line.

The lower left portion of the chart window shows a summary of the complete data set. The shaded area indicates the portion of the data that is visible in the main chart. By dragging the shaded area left or right, the displayed portion of the main chart is panned left or right, accordingly.

Moving the mouse over a single data point on the chart displays a tooltip that contains details about the underlying data item.
