Chart Examples

Example models and an extension file containing datasets to derive charts from them are provided with PowerDesigner.

The following example charts are defined in the EA Charts extension file, which is loaded by default in your repository library (and which is also delivered as part of the EA Example files available at <install_dir>/Examples/EAExample).
