displayType="summary" should be the attribute that puts the graphs on
that main measurement tab ("summary" it more or less a legacy term - the
alternative is "detail" which means by default just show the data in the
"tables" subtab - "summary" means to also show it in the
"graphs" subtab
so you can get a "summary" of the main data for that resource (or so
that's the theory behind the terms :)
There is actually a way to get a "summary" graph to show up, even if the
default displayType is "detail" - right mouse click on the resource in
the left-hand tree and there are options that you can add the graph to
the "graphs" subtab.
I have never seen a case where displayType="summary" did not work - I
have to believe there is something else going on - it doesn't look to be
a problem with the descriptor metadata itself.

I have customized the Script plugin by adding several metrics. These
successfully display on the Monitor tab under Tables but do not display
under Graphs.
Shouldn't all metrics enabled on the Monitor tab under Schedules also be
graphed? Is this ability determined by the metrics attributes? Below is
an example of the metric definition:
<metric property="{-i MB01 -m read}|"
dataType="measurement"
displayName="MB01 Messages read"
description="Number of messages read by MB01 msgreader"
defaultOn="true"
units="none"
defaultInterval="300000"
displayType="summary"
category="throughput"
measurementType="trendsup"
