Abstract
A method of rendering an overview axis is provided. A first indicator indicating a first graph element type to present in a canvas panel is received. First sample data is generated to render an instance of the first graph element type in the canvas panel. A second instance of the first graph element type is rendered in an overview axis using the generated first sample data. A second indicator indicating a second graph element type as a basis for presenting the overview axis is received, wherein the second graph element type is a different graph element type from the first graph element type. Second sample data is generated to render an instance of the second graph element type in the overview axis to replace the rendered second instance of the first graph element type.
