|  | animationEnabled | Type: Boolean Determines if data changes should be displayed with animation. | Chart
|  | backgroundSkin | Type: Class Name of the class to use as the skin for the background and border of the component. | Chart
|  | contentPadding | Type: Number The padding that separates the border of the component from its contents, in pixels. | Chart
|  | dataTipBackgroundSkin | Type: Class Name of the class to use as the skin for the background and border of the chart's data tip. | Chart
|  | dataTipContentPadding | Type: Number If the datatip's content padding is customizable, it will use this value. | Chart
|  | dataTipTextFormat | Type: TextFormat The TextFormat object to use to render data tips. | Chart
|  | embedFonts | Type: Boolean Indicates whether embedded font outlines are used to render the text field. | Chart
|  | seriesColors | Type: Array An Array containing the default colors for each series. These colors are used for markers in most cases, but they may apply to lines, fills, or other graphical items. Important: In the PieChart, a series uses multiple colors. The `seriesColors` style is designed to work with multiple series where the index in the Array corresponds to the series index. As a result, to set the colors on a PieChart, an Array of color values should appear at each index in the outer Array. The default value is `[ [ 0xfcaf3e, 0x73d216, 0x729fcf, 0xfce94f, 0xad7fa8, 0x3465a4 ], [ 0x3465a4, 0xad7fa8, 0xfce94f, 0x729fcf, 0x73d216, 0xfcaf3e ] ]`. | PieChart
|  | seriesMarkerSizes | Type: Array The default size of the markers in pixels. | Chart
|  | seriesMarkerSkins | Type: Array An Array containing the default skin classes for each series. | Chart
