There are some ideas sitzung in Jira that would be good for msking Charts even more successful, e.g. logarithmic axis and multiple y-axis..

Hope OpenJFX will be the place to make those things happen.

Different topic, but I thought this comment was interesting. Why are charts any different than controls? We see them as the same thing really. Charts are extensible -- folks can add new charts, or use the built in ones, exactly like controls. Both are intended to be drop-in use for applications. Charts are actually much more powerful than we've gotten credit for so far (I suspect this is because nobody has dug into them deeply and we've not documented a lot of the capabilities on fxexperience or javafx.com yet).
