Configure a basic SA_StackedColumnChart symbol using InTouch tags

The basic configuration of the SA_StackedColumnChart symbol shows ten chart bars with a legend, a chart heading, and axis descriptions. Each chart bar consists of four measured values that are stacked bar segments differentiated by fill color.

To configure a basic symbol, you need to assign attribute values to the BarXXA, BarXXB, BarXXC, and BarXXD custom properties for each chart bar. For the sake of simplicity, this example shows the basic configuration steps using only two chart bars.

Optional strings can be assigned to the symbol's chart heading, axis descriptions, and legend descriptions using the Substitute Strings feature.

Prerequisites

Create or use existing Real InTouch tags as the reference values to be assigned to the Bar01A through Bar02D custom properties.
