ComponentArt TimeNavigator was designed to enable quick and intuitive date range selections. Developers can specify the allowed date range as well as any number of date/time drill levels: decades, years, quarters, months, weeks, days, hours, minute, seconds or milliseconds. The user navigates through time and makes date selections by clicking, dragging, zooming, scrolling, using the mouse wheel or using SHIFT and CTRL keys. All operations are quick, easy and intuitive. ComponentArt TimeNavigator has been optimized to quickly handle many thousands of time nodes: scrolling, zooming and drilling is extremely responsive, even with very large time spans.

The following editions are available:

ComponentArt TimeNavigator is also available as part of ComponentArt Data Visualization for Silverlight, ComponentArt Data Visualization for WPF and ComponentArt Data Visualization for .NET Ultimate.
