setXAxisValues() function documentation appears incorrect.

[cpleasants]

According to the documentation here, setXAxisValues() "Only works for scatter charts." but that's not exactly true. This option also sets the Series to be used as Category on non-scatterplots.

P.S. please don't remove the ability for setXAxisValues() to work on non-scatterplots! It's incredibly useful to be able to set the Categories.

Thanks for flagging this documentation error @cpleasants. Don't worry, the behavior won't change.

@yaweizhu-henson, could you please help me confirm the scope of the ChartSeries class? I'll update the documentation to not exclude @cpleasants's case, but it would be good to fully understand the limits of the charting APIs.
