Chart types can also be created by developing components that serve as chart types. Existing chart types can be extended by adding additional shapes or modifying the existing shapes. Alternatively, a chart can be created from scratch. If drawing from scratch, it is an empty canvas and all shapes would have to be drawn from scratch.

Chart Add-Ins are actually UNO components, thus, you should be familiar with the chapter Writing UNO Components.
