# Configuration

Most Chartbuddy styling lives on **`chartData`**, not a separate `options` tree. Field map and layouts: [chartData schema](https://chartbuddy.io/embed/docs/api/chart-data.md).

| Concern | Where |
|---|---|
| Title / subtitle / footnote | `title`, `subtitle`, `footnote` |
| Text boxes | `multilines` (free callouts) |
| Legend & palette | `legend` (docked / free placement, `colors`, …) |
| Axes, ticks, gridlines | `axes.*.labels`, `axes.*.gridlines` – see [Axes](https://chartbuddy.io/embed/docs/axes.md) |
| Labels (totals vs in-segment vs series names) | `annotations.totals.visible`, `annotations.dataLabels`, `seriesLabels` (see [Labels](https://chartbuddy.io/embed/docs/configuration/labels.md)) |
| Number formats | `axes.*.labels.numberFormat`, `annotations.dataLabels.numberFormat`, `annotations.totals.numberFormat` (see [Number formats](https://chartbuddy.io/embed/docs/configuration/number-formats.md)) |
| Type-specific look | `bar`, `line`, `area`, `pie`, … |
| Arrows / level lines | `annotations.differenceArrows`, `cagrs`, `levelArrows`, `levelLines` |
