You can change the representation of entities. You might want to change an entity from an
icon to a text block, event frame, or theme line.
Entities added to the chart surface can change their representation. Changing the
representation changes the appearance, and allows different types of analysis to be carried out.
When you change the representation, you can also change the ordering behavior to follow for
entities that have date & time values.
