CreateAreaChart

What it does

This compatibility method behaves like CreateChart. Creates a configurable line or filled chart with a bounded point history. It is kept so scripts written with the older CreateAreaChart name continue to work.

When to use it

Use it for trends, time series, or changing numeric values. Prefer CreateChart in new code so the method name matches the current API.

ElementFunction:CreateAreaChart(ChartConfig)

local Result = Section:CreateAreaChart({
    Name = "Example",
    Callback = function(value)
        print(value)
    end,
})

Behavior and return value

This alias forwards to CreateChart, so its options, callbacks, and returned value follow the canonical method.

Fields marked optional may be omitted. XLQP then uses the method’s built-in default or leaves that feature disabled.
