Slide Number 4 Pre-requisites	To follow this tutorial you should be familiar with Periodic table of elements and GChemPaint For relevant tutorials on GChemPaint, please visit our website.
	Let's open a new GChemTable window.
Click on Dash Home>> Type “gchemtable” in the serach bar that appears.	Click on Dash Home. Type “gchemtable” in the search bar that appears.
Click on Periodic table of the elements icon.	Click on Periodic table of the elements icon.
Go to View menu select Elements Charts. Point to the submenu.	Go to View menu select Element Charts. A submenu opens, displaying a list of options.
Click on Electro-negativity.	Click on Electro-negativity. A chart of Pauling Electro-negativity versus Atomic number(Z) is displayed.
Point to the chart.	In the chart, highest Electro-negativity value is '4'.
Point to Close button.	I will now close the Electro-negativity chart.
Select Melting Point chart.	Likewise, different charts are available under View menu, Element charts option. I will select Melting Temperature option now.
Point to the highest Melting Point.	A chart of Melting point versus Atomic number(Z) is displayed. In this chart, Carbon has highest melting point.
Point to Close button.	I will close the Melting point chart now.
	Now, let's learn how to create a "Custom" chart.
Go to View menu select Element Charts >> Navigate to Custom and click on it.	Go to View, select Element Charts and click on Custom.

	Customize Chart window has, Graph hierarchy tree on the left and Graph preview on the right.
Point to Graph hierarchy tree. Point to the Hierarchy. Point to the buttons.	Graph hierarchy tree displays the current graph components and their hierarchy. Hierarchy can be modified using the buttons given in the panel below.
Point to Graph preview.	Graph preview displays a scaled version of the modifications in the graph.
Point to Graph and Chart1 in Graph hierarchy tree. Point to Graph	In the Graph hierarchy tree, you can see Graph and Chart1. By default, Graph is selected.
Move the cursor to the panel. Point to tabs Style and Theme.	Now let's move to the panel below. Here, there are two tabs: Style and Theme.
