This method can be used with the Click server-side event when you implement drilldown. However, it is highly recommended that you use client-side image maps for drilldown because of ease of use.
The properties of the returned HitTestResult object can then be used to determine which chart element was clicked; the HitTestResult object also provides an instance of the actual object selected, if any.
