Remarks
Call this method to determine the chart element (if any) that is located at a specified point.
Often this method is used in some mouse-related event (e.g. MouseDown) to determine what chart element the end-user clicked on. The X and Y mouse coordinates obtained from the event parameters are then used for the X and Y parameter values of this method call.
The returned HitTestResult object's properties can then be used to determine what chart element was clicked on, and also provides an instance of the actual object selected (if any).
