NOTE: setTitleString() is displayed
even if the graph is held, unlike
HEADING
GRAPH Tips and Techniques
Utilize setTitleString() with &variable for Graph Title
setFontStyle() - This method assigns a font style to a text object.
setFontStyle(int newValue);
setFontStyle(IdentObj id, int newValue);
Some Object IDs are
id - Is an object ID returned by a getObjectID() method (for example, getTitle()).
newValue - Is the font style (0...7). Values can be:
0 = Plain
1 = Italic
2 = Bold
3 = Italic/Bold
4 = Underline
5 = Italic/Underline
6 = Bold/Underline
7 = Bold/Italic/Underline
setFontSizeInPoints() - This method assigns a font size to a text object.
setFontSizeInPoints (int newValue);
setFontSizeInPoints (IdentObj id, int newValue);
id - Is an object ID returned by a getObjectID() method (for example, getTitle())
newValue - Is a font size value in points (1...128). The default value is 12.
setFontName() - This method assigns a font name to a text object.
setFontName(String newValue);
setFontName(IdentObj id, String newValue);
id - Is an object ID returned by a getObjectID() method (for example, getFootnote()).
newValue - Is a font name string.
getFootnote()
getLegendText()
getSubtitle()
getTitle()

GRAPH Tips and Techniques
Display Graph Data in Quadrants via setReferenceLine()
setReferenceLine() - This method defines a reference line to be drawn in the graph.
setReferenceLine(IdentObj axisObj, int nIndex, double nPosition)
axisObj - Is an object ID of an axis object returned by a getObjectID() method (for example,
getY1Axis()).
nIndex - Is the reference line index number (0...2).
nPosition - Is the reference line position.
setLineWidth() - This method defines the thickness (in pixels) of a line object.
setLineWidth(IdentObj id,int newValue);
setLineWidth(int newValue);
id - Is an object ID returned by a getObjectID() method (for example, getReferenceLine ()).
newValue - Is the line width in pixels.
setFillColor() - This method assigns a fill color to an area object.
setFillColor(Color newValue);
setFillColor(IdentObj id, Color newValue);
id - Is an object ID returned by a getObjectID() method (for example, getReferenceLine()).
newValue - Is the value of the fill color.

setSeriesType() - This method sets the series type for a specific object, series number,
or the first item in the selection list.
setSeriesType ( int newValue );
setSeriesType ( IdentObj id, int newValue );
setSeriesType ( int seriesID, int newValue );
id - Is an object ID returned by a getObjectID() method (for example, getSeries()).
seriesID - Is an object number.
newValue - Is a series type. Values can be:
0,
1,

setAxisAssignment() - In multi-axis graphs, this method can be used to assign individual
series to the Y1, Y2, Y3, Y4, and Y5 axes. If an object id or SeriesID is not specified,
this method sets the axis assignment attribute for the first item in the selection list.
setAxisAssignment (int newValue);
setAxisAssignment (IdentObj id, int newValue);
setAxisAssignment (int seriesID, int newValue);
id - Is an object ID returned by a getObjectID() method (for example, getSeries(1)).
seriesID - Is a series number.
newValue - Can be one of the following values:
