Chart Control:

• The following new chart types were added:

• Added support for logarithmic scales of any base.
• Added trend line support with the following built-in approximations (see a new class CBCGPChartTrendFormula):
  • Linear
  • Exponential
  • Logarithmic
  • Power
  • Polynomial of order 2 - 6. 
• Transition (formula) support has been implemented in a new class CBCGPChartTransitionFormula. It can take several input series and generate data points using either built-in transitions (sum, diff, multiply, divide, average etc), or custom transitions (you can specify a callback implementing a custom formula).
• Virtual series support allows to display any custom function on the diagram.
• "Chart Objects" feature allows you to add annotation and other objects (like lines or colored zones) to a Chart or diagram. The following new classes were added for this feature:
  • CBCGPChartObject
  • CBCGPChartLineObject
  • CBCGPChartRangeObject
  • CBCGPChartTextObject
  • CBCGPChartAxisMarkObject.

  The main Chart controller (CBCGPChartVisualObject) provides the following helpers to allow you to add Chart Objects quickly using the following methods: AddChartObject, AddChartTextObject, AddChartLineObject, AddChartRangeObject and AddChartAxisMarkObject.

• "Chart Effects" feature enables you to add interline coloring effects to a diagram. See new classes CBCGPChartBaseEffect, CBCGPChartInterLineColoringEffect.
• Axes can display scroll bars. Use two new methods ShowScrollBar and SetAlwaysShowScrollBar defined in CBCGPChartAxis, or helpers defined in CBCGPChartVisualObject: ShowScrollBar (enables scroll bar for a given axis) and ShowScrollBars (enables scroll bars for all axes).
• Linear Gauge has been added to the Gauges collection: the new class CBCGPLinearGaugeImpl implements the linear gauge. Please take a look at BCGPGaugesDemo to see the gauges in action.
• Added ability to save/load Dialogs and Property Sheets window placements. The following methods have been added:
• CBCGPDialog::EnableLoadWindowPlacement
• CBCGPPropertySheet::EnableLoadWindowPlacement
• Grid additions: Added Find support - the following new methods have been added to the CBCGPGridCtrl class:
  • OpenFindReplaceDlg
  • CloseFindReplaceDlg
  • Find
  • OnPrepareFindString
  • OnTextNotFound
  • OnTextFound
• Added a new virtual method 'CBCGPGridCtrl::OnAfterInplaceEditCreated which is called right after the in-place edit has been created.

Fixes:

• Fixed painting of the right side of the grid header.
• Fix in CBCGPGridCtrl::OnLButtonUp for disabled grid items.
• Fixed a problem with drawing rotated texts using CBCGPGraphicsManagerGDI.
