Graphical display of data

JJ
Just wondered what is generally used to display data in graphical form?

(i..e I have some simple data to display in a bar graph/pie chart for
example).

There are many, many 3rd-party business graphics solutions or .NET:
http://www.google.co.uk/search?sourc...2eNET%22+chart

Almost all of them do almost exactly the same things... Have a look at a few
and pick the one you like best :-)

I use this one: http://www.advsofteng.com/
(i..e I have some simple data to display in a bar graph/pie chart for
example).
In addition to the link Michael suggested, very basic bar "charts" can be
simulated with labels of various lengths and background colours - looks
pretty amateurish, though... :-)

Thanks guys.

I want it to look as good as possible (but with minimum effort and no cost
ofcourse.. ;-) )

The other option if to feed the data to flash. Might be too much work there.
Will take a look at the link first....

Thanks,

JJ

I think there is a free library on www.codeproject.com that works OK.

See:
http://www.dotnetcharting.com/
There are 2 different "rates" that you're talking about.

The rate to get data out of the datastore (usually a database).
The rate to render the data.
You also want to seperate the code which gets the data (datalayer) from the
code whichs presents it ( presentation layer, dotnetcharting for example).
Take a look at
5/24/2006
Custom Objects/Collections and Tiered Development
http://sholliday.spaces.live.com/blog/
That will show you "layered" or "tiered" development.
It will also allow you to time the 2 rates your speaking of, without mixing
the two.

Here's a module to show stderr output from console-less Python apps, and stay out of the way otherwise. I plan to make a ASPN recipe of it, but I thought I'd run it by this group first. To use it, import the module. That's it. Upon import it will assign sys.stderr. In the normal case, your code is perfect so nothing ever gets written to stderr, and the module won't do much of anything. Upon the first write to stderr, if any, the...

Overview: Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
