| **SetDefault** | Set initial values on the graph control. |

The **SetDefault** method initializes critical properties of the graph object prior to its data point calculations and display. Most of these properties are found in the Initial Settings section of the Graph Control template.

**Implementation:**

The **SetDefault** method is called from the graph object's Init method.
