Loading Indicator

Trend Module Repositioning
You can reposition the trend module anywhere within the graphic’s display panel, but not across panels in a
multiple-panel layout. To move the Trend Module, drag the title bar.
You can dock the Trend Module by dragging the module outside the panel boundary on the top, bottom, right or left
side of the Metasys display panel. The Trend Module does not support multiple monitors.
Zoom Operations
You can zoom in the chart by holding down the mouse and sliding across the chart (either to the left or to the right).
This action activates drag zoom. Zoom works for values on the x-axis, not values on the y-axis. To zoom out, click
the Zoom Out link that appears in the upper-right corner on a zoomed chart.
You can also zoom from the horizontal scroll bar by clicking and dragging on the ends of the scroll bar.
Legend Operations
Once the trend data is plotted, use the check boxes in the legend to hide or unhide trend values from appearing in
the chart. If you want to remove the trended object from the legend and the chart, click the remove ( ) button.
To highlight a specific trend object and its data, click on its name in the legend. This action sends the selected series
and its associated y-axis information to the foreground of the chart.
If you try to plot a trended attribute that was deleted or whose object is offline, its legend icon is blank and a user
message box appears (Figure 6).
