Real-Life Examples​

Here are some scenarios where you might use the "Clear line chart" action:

    • Inputs:
      • UI element: "Monthly Sales Trend Chart" (the specific line chart displaying sales data)
    • Result: The "Monthly Sales Trend Chart" on your dashboard becomes empty, ready for the new month's sales figures to be loaded.

  2. Preparing a Stock Price Tracker for New Data

    • Inputs:
      • UI element: "Temperature Readings Chart"
    • Result: The "Temperature Readings Chart" is emptied, providing a clean slate to visualize the temperature data collected during the new monitoring session.
