Chart template for tracked variable

[ FlexSim 19.0.2 ]

Hi,

I was wondering how I can quickly plot the value of a tracked variable vs. time in a dashboard.

Of course I can make a Statistics Collector that listens to the On Change of the tracked variable, give it two columns, create a time plot, attach it to the Stats Collector and change the series type to Line; but that sounds like the sort of thing that would already be in the library somewhere.

It is, but it's a legacy chart, that is why it doesn't show up as an option. Below shows how to bring it up.

Thanks Joshua. I try not to use the Legacy Charts as "legacy" to me sounds like "deprecated" but I understand that it's fine and actually the recommended solution in this case?
