Picture-in-Picture

The picture-in-picture effect can be obtained by using the Viewport attribute. This sets the fraction of the screen into which the chart is to be drawn. The Viewport attribute's value is a double[4] containing {xmin, xmax, ymin, ymax}, on a [0,1] by [0,1] grid with (0,0) at the top-left.

This chart tree for the above picture consists of a chart with an AxisXY child and a Pie child. (The Pie class is a subclass of Axis.) The Viewport attribute of the Pie node is set to a non-default value.
