This property is assigned a Web address (URL), which points to an XML file that describes the appearance of the business graphic on the screen (for example, color of the graphic, background color, fonts, and so on, or whether the graphic has a legend). 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 secondary mouse button, and select 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 from meta model settings.
