ComponentArt SqlChart for Reporting Services

ComponentArt SqlChart for Reporting Services Overview
ComponentArt SqlChart for Reporting Services provides advanced charting and graphing functionality to your Microsoft SQL Server Reporting Services applications.

ComponentArt SqlChart for Reporting Services 3D Rendering
Advanced image quality delivered by ComponentArt's 3D rendering engine.
The engine processes lights, reflection and transparency to produce near ray-tracing quality of graphics in a fraction of a second.
The original 3D rendering engine makes full use of 3D space for additional data presentation (for example variable segment heights in pie/doughnut charts)
Advanced features such as object intrusion produce great looking charts, not possible in traditional 2D rendering.

ComponentArt SqlChart for Reporting Services Flexible Chart Modelling
Tree-like series structure is combined with the API for fine-tuning axes, planes, labels and data points.
Chart contents such as series, axes, coordinate systems, annotations etc. are exposed through both the wizard and property view in design time, as well as through APIs for fine tuning at run-time .The Visual Studio property view provides full access to all chart properties available in design-time. The charting API allows for the finest run-time charting object model tuning, up to the finest detail of individual data points, individual axis labels, etc.

ComponentArt SqlChart for Reporting Services Extensible and Customizable Chart Styles
All visual aspects of any chart are controlled through a concept of reusable styles for individual chart elements. Chart styles are controlled through a set of fully customizable, reusable and extensible style collections for each type of object that may appear in a chart, such as series, data point labels, axis annotations, etc.
Every type of object that may appear in a chart has its own style type including series, data point labels, 2D and 3D lines, markers and gradients. For every style type a collection of predefined styles is provided. Existing styles can be customized and/or new styles may be created and stored into corresponding style collections, making it easy to create a specific design template. Templates can be used to save and reuse chart styles. For example, a unified chart style can be defined on report and company level.

ComponentArt SqlChart for Reporting Services Chart and Data Organization
Chart can be divided into multiple areas; an area can contain a chart or it can be divided into smaller sub-areas

• Series are organised in hierarchies of composite and simple series to represent relationship between data sets
• All series properties can be set independently or share common attributes
• Composite series can be displayed using the following composition kinds:
• Sections (behind each other)
• Merged (beside each other)
• Stacked (on top of each other)
• Stacked 100% (showing relative size on top of each other)
• Concentric (for Pie/Doughnut)
• Multiple Coordinate System
• Multiple Area
• Multiple composition kinds possible in a single chart
• Integer, double, DateTime and string dimensions handled along both x- and y-axis
• Users can define custom hierarchical data dimensions

ComponentArt SqlChart for Reporting Services Data Binding
Binding to Report DataSet (Microsoft.ReportDesigner.RptDataSet)

Free Annotations

• Unlimited number of annotations can be added to the chart
• Annotations can be attached to a data point, coordinate on an axis or any coordinate in a coordinate plane
• Annotations formatting is flexible - you can control colors, fonts, background, etc.

ComponentArt SqlChart for Reporting Services Coordinate System

• Multiple coordinate system in a single chart
• Standard (vertical) and horizontal system orientation plus other four system orientations allow chart viewing in every possible angle
• Reversed direction for all axes
