Understanding Rating Box Chart Terms

The following is a list of terms that apply specifically to rating box charts.

Field or Control	Description

Quadrant	A rating box chart is an array of quadrants arranged in a grid along the x and y axes. Each quadrant represents a pair of ratings, one for the x value and one for the y value. Each quadrant can display a custom label as defined by an instance of the QuadrantSchema class. See Using the QuadrantSchema Class.
Rating	A text string that is assigned to each quadrant in the rating chart. Each quadrant has an x rating, based on its position on the horizontal axis, and a y rating, based on its position on the vertical axis.
