Hi Igor,
ComponentArt's Webchart does this:
http://www.componentart.com/charting..._overview.aspx
See the StoreTemplate method:
http://www.componentart.com/Library/...e(Stream).html
"Stores chart settings to a stream. The output might be used in LoadTemplate
function to restore chart settings.
The template concept makes possible saving and reusing design work involving
all pre-DataBind settings, including color palettes, coordinate systems
setup, frame and titles etc. It allows easy creation of "the same chart with
different data" and can save a lot of time when consistency is needed for a
series of charts or in any other situation where chart standardization is
required. "
[Full disclosure: I've done contract work on ComponentArt's documentation
and samples]

Hi all,
I'm looking for a tool that can design charts and save chart definitions
in a file.
I would put those chart definitions in a database and then later load them
and render charts (as images) in asp.net application (using the library
from that tool).
That way I can easily add new charts to my webapp without changing the
asp.net source code.
Any recommendations?
Or suggestions for a better way to achieve this.
Thanks in advance,
Igor
