+====== How to show charts ======
+The best way to show charts is to define a query that would retrieve data for charts and then select “Chart” as the presentation option for this query. This is explained in the “[[docs:2500_config_apps:1100_add_edit_queries:0200_display_results|Displaying Query Results]]” section. The query should find instances of objects whose attributes provide data values for the X and Y-axis of the chart. Charts displayed this way will be dynamic – the user will be able to see the values of the points on the chart as he hovers the mouse over the data. He will also be able to click on the chart and start some operation (that you can define).
+It is also possible to define charts in presentation and reports. Such charts will be displayed as static images.
