Abstract
Various methods, systems and storage devices are used for utilizing selective triggering events for optimizing chart visualizations. These selective triggering events can include determinations that chart elements are overlapping, that the chart elements are certain types of chart elements and/or that the chart elements are overlapping by a certain amount. The optimizations can include changing sizes, positions and/or transparencies of different chart elements.
