chart_scatter

Canvas scatter plot of PointSeries — dots only, no connecting line, with per-series palette colours and a configurable marker glyph. Pick this over chart_line when each observation matters more than the trend between them.

Options

Option	Type	Required	Default	Description
axes	bool	no	false	Draw a bordered block around the canvas so axes read as framed.
marker	"dot" | "block" | "bar" | "braille" | "half_block"	no	"dot"	Scatter glyph family, mapped to ratatui's symbols::Marker variants. Unknown names fall back to dot.

Theme tokens

Overridable via the [theme] section of your dashboard config.

Key	Description
palette_series	Palette cycled per-slice / per-series by chart_pie / chart_line / chart_scatter. TOML takes an array of colours.
panel_border	Panel border colour. Defaults to a muted ocean teal-gray that sits between bg and text_secondary — visible as structure without competing with the coral panel_title. Set panel_border = "reset" to inherit the terminal's own foreground instead.
bg	Viewport background. Painted across the entire splash area before widgets draw. The default is a deep-ocean navy; set bg = "reset" to inherit the terminal's own background instead (recommended on light terminals).
