·        customizing

How the graphic is displayed on the screen. This property is assigned to a Web address (URL) linking to an XML file that describes the appearance of the business graphic on the screen – for example, the graphic color, the background color, fonts, and so on. It also specifies whether the graphic displays a legend or not.
You can also make these settings directly in the View Designer using the Chart Designer tool.  To call this tool, place the cursor on the UI element, click the right mouse button, and select the Edit Customizing in the context menu. See also Chart Designer.
The BusinessGraphics properties dimension and fontFamily are provided by the meta model itself. They overwrite the customizing settings if they differ.
