Chart Scope Variables
Certain chart scoped variables may interfere with the internal functions of the chart. For example, creating a variable like chart.values will conflict with a pyDictionary's values() method and therefore the chart will show an error. Since SFC charts use Python Dictionaries to manage chart scoped variables the methods associated with Python Dictionary's act like reserved words.
There are a number of built-in variables maintained by the SFC engine that can be read through the chart scope.
