The defaults are a collection of properties that are inherited by each item (pane, pen, cursor, and so on) when that item is created. These default properties are maintained for the lifetime of the item until its properties are modified.
You configure these defaults in the same way as you configure the individual components. The Default Settings node on the property tree contains the following items:
-
All pens - configure the gridlines, axis, quality, connection, and cursor label properties for pen types. See Configure Pen Gridlines, Configure Pen Axes, Configure Pen Quality, Configure the Pen Data Connection, and Configure Cursor Labels.
-
Cursor - configure cursor defaults. See Configure Cursors.
-
Analog - configure the appearance of analog pens. See Configure Pen Appearance.
-
Digital - configure the appearance of digital pens. See Configure Pen Appearance.
-
Alarm - configure the appearance of alarm pens. See Configure Pen Appearance.
-
Pane - configure the pane height and appearance defaults. See Configure Chart Panes.
