public interface Component extends ComponentPart

Chart component. Chart components can be added to the SOChart for rendering using SOChart.add(Component...) method. Some chart components have other components as its parts. Thus, those will be automatically added to the same chart when the component is added. For example: If a ChartType.Line chart, plotted on a RectangularCoordinate, is added, the RectangularCoordinate will be automatically added. However, it is not an error if you add both of them separately.

You may have this question: Why would I ever add a CoordinateSystem if I am not going to plot any chart on it? The answer is, sometimes, it may be useful for creating some special effects! SOChart is like a "canvas", whatever you add as components will be rendered there, one on top of others, unless you position them within the canvas (Many Components and ComponentParts support setPosition(Position method).
