Scatter Polar Line Chart
- 2 minutes to read
Short Description
The Scatter Polar Line Chart is represented by the ScatterPolarLineSeriesView object, which belongs to both Polar Series Views and Point, Line and Spline Series Views. This view shows trends for several series and compares their values for the same point arguments on a circular diagram on the basis of angles. The series point is also represented in the same order that they have in the collection. That is in contrast to other view types that sort their points by arguments, and some aggregate points with equal arguments into a single entry along the X-axis.
For example, the following image demonstrates a Scatter Polar Line Chart, representing a graph for the Archimedean spiral.
