將圖表轉換為靜態圖像，以便跨平臺和設備進行有效通信和資料共用。

Chart components with image export features empower users to save a chart's visual representation as a static image file, providing a convenient way to share, embed, or print data insights. This capability is valuable for developers and end-users alike, as it removes the need for access to the original dataset or charting software when distributing visualizations. With image export, users can preserve the chart's design, style, and formatting, ensuring that its presentation remains consistent across various platforms, from presentations to reports. Additionally, by offering support for standard formats such as PNG, JPEG, or SVG, this feature enables seamless integration of charts into documents, websites, or printed materials, enhancing flexibility and broadening the ways in which data insights can be shared and utilized.

Several WPF charting components support exporting to images including:

  • ComponentOne Charts for WPF (part of ComponentOne Studio WPF by MESCIUS) offers comprehensive features for exporting charts, including support for various image formats.
  • LightningChart .NET supports a wide range of image formats and allows for customization of export settings, such as resolution, quality, and compression.
  • ProEssentials by GigaSoft can easily export charts to several image formats, and control the quality and size of the exported images.
  • TeeChart WPF (part of TeeChart for .NET by Steema Software) enables flexible chart export options, allowing users to save charts as images such as PNG, JPEG, BMP and GIF.

用 3D 功能解鎖速度和流暢性

10月 23, 2024
LightningChart .NET v12.1.1 透過改進的縮放、旋轉和平移功能增強了 2D 和 3D 交互，從而改進了大型資料集的導航。

LightningChart .NET is a high-performance data visualization library designed for .NET developers working with WPF, WinForms, and UWP applications. It offers GPU-accelerated rendering for smooth real-time visualization of massive datasets, exceeding billions of data points. This library supports a wide variety of chart types, including 2D, 3D, polar, and geographic maps, along with extensive customization options for each. LightningChart .NET is a powerful tool for developers creating demanding data visualization applications requiring exceptional performance.

The LightningChart .NET v12.1.1 update delivers a substantial performance boost to 3D interactions, particularly for large surface-rendering objects such as SurfaceGridSeries3D, SurfaceMeshSeries3D, and MeshModel. This improvement allows for faster zooming, rotating, and panning, significantly enhancing the efficiency of workflows involving complex 3D models. Developers working on mid-level systems will experience at least double the performance, while high-end graphics setups can achieve up to a tenfold increase in speed. These optimizations enable smoother and more responsive interaction with large datasets, leading to more productive and seamless user experiences when working in demanding 3D environments.

To see a full list of what's new in v12.1.1, see our release notes.

LightningChart .NET is available per developer in packages for either WPF, WinForms, UWP or all 3. Each package comes as a subscription license (with 1 or 2 years of limited support), or a perpetual license (with 1 or 2 years of Standard or Premium support). Floating licenses and site licenses are available upon request. See our LightningChart .NET licensing page for full details.

用互動式工具提示提升圖表視覺化效果

10月 16, 2024
透過直觀的工具提示為使用者提供上下文資訊並增強對圖表的理解。

Tooltips are a valuable feature that provides users with contextual information about specific data points within a chart. By hovering over or clicking on a data point, a tooltip appears displaying relevant details such as the data value, category, or additional context. This enhances user understanding and interaction, making charts more informative and accessible. Tooltips are particularly useful for visualizing large datasets, identifying trends, and comparing different data points. For instance, in a line chart, tooltips can display the exact value of a data point at a specific time, while in a bar chart, they can show the corresponding category and value.

Several VCL products offer chart components with tooltip support including:

  • DevExpress ExpressCharts Suite (part of DevExpress VCL Subscription) lets you create charts with tooltips that display detailed information about each data point.
  • TeeChart Pro VCL/FMX by Steema Software allows you to add informative tooltips to your charts, providing users with quick access to data values and context.
  • ProEssentials by GigaSoft facilitates the creation of visually appealing charts with tooltips that can be customized to display specific data fields and formatting.
