Line Chart
Line charts are commonly used to showcase the trend in data over time . Information in a line chart is plotted on the x- and y-axis; data values are plotted using data points that are connected using line segments.
Caption
The caption (also called the chart title) is the heading of your chart. You can add custom text for the caption, as well as configure its font properties and cosmetics. Learn more about it
Subcaption
The sub-caption (also called the chart subtitle) is the sub-heading of your chart. You can add custom text for sub-caption, as well as configure its font properties.
Data Plot

Legend
A legend is a chart element used to display the series name for each dataset, in case of multi-series or combination charts. Legends are used to correlate a data plot to its series name using its color.
Tooltip
A tooltip is displayed when the mouse cursor hovers over a particular data point. It denotes valuable information about the data plot hovered.
Crossline
