x_error_bar	Represents X direction error bar of the series.
y_error_bar	Represents Y direction error bar of the series.
has_hi_lo_lines	True if the line chart has high-low lines. Applies only to line charts.
hi_lo_lines	Returns a HiLoLines object that represents the high-low lines for a series on a line chart. Applies only to line charts.
has_series_lines	True if a stacked column chart or bar chart has series lines or if a Pie of Pie chart or Bar of Pie chart has connector lines between the two sections. Applies only to stacked column charts, bar charts, Pie of Pie charts, or Bar of Pie charts.
series_lines	Returns a SeriesLines object that represents the series lines for a stacked bar chart or a stacked column chart. Applies only to stacked bar and stacked column charts.
has_drop_lines	True if the chart has drop lines. Applies only to line chart or area charts.
drop_lines	Returns a `Line` object that represents the drop lines for a series on the line chart or area chart. Applies only to line chart or area charts.
has_up_down_bars	True if a line chart has up and down bars. Applies only to line charts.
up_bars	Returns an DropBars object that represents the up bars on a line chart. Applies only to line charts.
down_bars	Returns a `DropBars` object that represents the down bars on a line chart. Applies only to line charts.
is_color_varied	Represents if the color of points is varied. The chart must contain only one series.
gap_width	Returns or sets the space between bar or column clusters, as a percentage of the bar or column width. The value of this property must be between 0 and 500.
first_slice_angle	Gets or sets the angle of the first pie-chart or doughnut-chart slice, in degrees (clockwise from vertical). Applies only to pie, 3-D pie, and doughnut charts, 0 to 360.
overlap	Specifies how bars and columns are positioned. Can be a value between – 100 and 100. Applies only to 2-D bar and 2-D column charts.
second_plot_size	Returns or sets the size of the secondary section of either a pie of pie chart or a bar of pie chart, as a percentage of the size of the primary pie. Can be a value from 5 to 200.
split_type	Returns or sets a value that how to determine which data points are in the second pie or bar on a pie of pie or bar of pie chart.
split_value	Returns or sets a value that shall be used to determine which data points are in the second pie or bar on a pie of pie or bar of pie chart.
is_auto_split	Indicates whether the threshold value is automatic.
bubble_scale	Gets or sets the scale factor for bubbles in the specified chart group. It can be an integer value from 0 (zero) to 300, corresponding to a percentage of the default size. Applies only to bubble charts.
size_represents	Gets or sets what the bubble size represents on a bubble chart.
show_negative_bubbles	True if negative bubbles are shown for the chart group. Valid only for bubble charts.
doughnut_hole_size	Returns or sets the size of the hole in a doughnut chart group. The hole size is expressed as a percentage of the chart size, between 10 and 90 percent.
explosion	The distance of an open pie slice from the center of the pie chart is expressed as a percentage of the pie diameter.
has_radar_axis_labels	True if a radar chart has category axis labels. Applies only to radar charts.
has_leader_lines	True if the series has leader lines.
leader_lines	Represents leader lines on a chart. Leader lines connect data labels to data points. This object isn’t a collection; there’s no object that represents a single leader line.
legend_entry	Gets the legend entry according to this series.
shape_properties	Gets the `ShapePropertyCollection` object that holds the visual shape properties of the Series.
