Those for sure, but not only. Also surface charts, which is more like what you would call a plot in some other programs. > (Apart from that, those 3D effects are bad for a chart's readability > anyways ;) I might even agree with you but we still need to support them. :) Except in some cases when you have a table of values that you need to visualize, then it's very difficult to do with 2D charts. -Inge > Greetings, > Sven
