[Paraview] Adding custom chart view

[Nehme Bilal]

Thanks Utkarsh and Moreland for your responses.

I'm creating a totally new view, similar to the histogram 
view, but I want to use a different way to draw the 
histogram or the curve.
1- Should I create a custom diplay panel for my view or 
it's optional ? If it's optional, should I specify the 
display proxy information in my xml file ?

I did a first try and I got this error:
ERROR: In 
..\..\..\trunk\Servers\ServerManager\vtkSMProxyManager.cxx, 
line 330
vtkSMProxyManager (07F8C570): No proxy that matches: 
group=views and proxy=pqPlotPropertiesOverTimeView were 
found.

Do I have to add my view name somewhere in Paraview core ?

here are my files:

Thank you,

Nehme
