Custom charts are not automatically saved when you save your project. By default all new custom charts are assigned to the Temporary sub-folder under custom charts. Charts in the Temporary sub-folder are automatically discarded at the end of each Source session, when a project is closed. To save a custom chart with the Source project, use right-click »  Save Custom Chart which will then move the custom chart to the Saved sub-folder. This will save the custom chart along with the transforms you have applied, the chart type, and any other options you have configured (eg. short header in Tables). However, results Sub-folders can be used to further organise saved custom charts.

The chart style and chart settings are saved, but the original results themselves are not saved with a custom chart, unless you choose to save the run(s) that generated the results.  When By default, when you next open your project, the custom chart will be empty until a result is generated that exactly matches the name of a result used in the custom chart, iei.e. the scenario name and run number have to match, so you need to run the scenarios in the same order. If results from Latest Run are used to generate a custom chart, it will be populated as soon as you run any scenario. Therefore, if you want to return to an analysis in a custom chart after closing a project, it is best to use either results from Latest Run or to save the run in the project.

The Custom Chart pane is illustrated in Figure 1.
