Class	public class LineChart
Inheritance	LineChart CartesianChart TinyChartBase ChartBase spark.components.supportClasses.SkinnableComponent
Implements	ILineChart
Subclasses	AreaChart

The LineChart control represents a data series as points connected by a continuous line. You can use an icon or symbol to represent each data point along the line, or show a simple line with no icons.

The LineChart control expects its series property to contain an Array of LineSeries objects.
