Financial Charting Library

I am currently searching for a graph charting library for a website I'm
building. The graphs will be mostly financial (stocks, trade volumes,
....etc). I searched the web and found multiple charting libraries like
jpGraph (http://www.aditus.nu/jpgraph/index.php ) and ChartDirector
(http://www.advsofteng.com/cdphp.html ).

I was wondering if anybody had good/bad experiences with them or if
there are any recommendations .

TIA.

I suggest you use the pear package for this because thats totally
free.. jpgraph is not if you use it on a comercial page and upgrading
pear is also easier etc.

The package is found here: http://pear.php.net/package/Image_Graph

you can see what it can do here: http://pear.veggerby.dk/samples/

On the other hand, Image_Graph is in alpha status, which means that it
is not only buggy as hell, but is likely to change significantly. Other
then that, I wouldn't necessarily trust the package which was unable to
produce at least a decent beta in more then a year.

I'm looking for charting control or library that can do all the simple charts (line, bar, pie, etc.) as well as some other ones like thermometers and fuel gauges. Does anybody know of any? I've looked at all the ones on the asp.net page in the Control Gallery but none of them that I saw have those non standard ones i mentioned above. http://www.asp.net/ControlGallery/default.aspx?

Hello, I need to do some financial calculations on my ASP.NET forms. Under Visual Basic it was pretty straightforward - I just used built-in functions such as PV() (principal value) or PMT(). How can I access those functions under .NET and display them on ASP.NET forms? Any ideas? Thanks,

I don't see any class in .NET that contains the standard financial functions like Rate, Pmt, etc. They are in the Visual Basic library. Can the VB library be referenced in an asp.net app on a shared host? If so, how? Can anyone point me toward .NET code to perform these functions? TIA

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?

Is any one charting packing considered to be the "best"? We've used ChartFX but wasn't too happy about the way data had to be populated along with some other issues which slip my mind right now and Dundas has bugs and doesn't do a good enough job displaying axis labels and is very slow to paint large numbers of series and data points. We're currently evaluating ProEssentials which we are happy with but it's not a native .NET package. ...

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,...
