Creating dynamic charts from an external file

Adding other chart information
You can also set Chart title, X and Y axis titles and sort order within the
data file. The example below shows how the Chart title can be set.
Make sure that your data file includes a variable for the title such as
&ThisChartTitle=Monthly Growth Statistics
On frame 3, include the following:
//get Chart title
var ChartTitle
if (loading.ThisChartTitle.length> 0) {
ChartTitle = loading.ThisChartTitle;
}
else {
ChartTitle = "Default Title";
}
This code tests to see if we have a chart title and assigns it to the ChartTitle
variable. If no title exists, the words "Default Title" will appear.
Apply to title to the chart with:
MyChart.setChartTitle(ChartTitle);
You can use the same approach for X and Y axis titles and for sorting the data.
