• WinForms Charting basics: the Gantt Rant

  It's certainly turning into a charting marathon in my blog recently, and why not? XtraCharts is just so cool. Anyway, Jeff has completed the editing of the next video in my series on the various chart types in XtraCharts, and so I present it without...

• WinForms Charts: How to use panes programmatically

  A request came in just recently, prompted by my video introducing the three major new features in XtraCharts v2008 vol 2: how do you set up a couple of series and display them in separate panes. "Programmatically" came the kicker before I could... Posted Aug 27 2008, 04:20 PM by Julian M Bucknall with | with no comments Filed under: XtraCharts, WinForms, v2008.2, Charting

• WinForms Charting basics: the Radar plot

  A quick video this one, part of a series on the different chart types available in XtraCharts. Here I discuss the three radar charts provided in our charting product: radar points, lines, and area. [For some reason, it looks as if some demented two-year... Posted Aug 26 2008, 05:56 PM by Julian M Bucknall with | with 2 comment(s) Filed under: XtraCharts, WinForms, v2008.2, Charting

• WinForms charting basics with XtraCharts

  Last week, Jeff and I recorded a "basics" video about XtraCharts. In looking at this video, I see I should do further explanatory posts explaining the glossary or nomenclature that XtraCharts uses. At least I touched on things like arguments... Posted Aug 25 2008, 03:42 PM by Julian M Bucknall with | with no comments Filed under: XtraCharts, WinForms, Charting

• WinForms & ASP.NET Charts: what's new in v2008 vol 2

  Here's a video that describes three of the important new features in XtraCharts for v2008 vol 2.

• Benefits of XtraCharts

  I was chatting to our charting team lead recently and I asked him what features did he think XtraCharts had that would make it the choice for someone who needed charts in their application. I know what floats my boat about the product, but then again... Posted Apr 03 2008, 05:50 PM by Julian M Bucknall with | with 18 comment(s) Filed under: XtraCharts, v2008.1

• XtraCharts now has splines? Wassat then?

  Back in school, it seemed that we always had to draw some graph or other for math homework. We were given an equation like y = x 3 - 3 x 2 and had to plot it on squared graph paper. I had a marvelous bendy ruler for this task and I'd carefully bend... Posted Mar 21 2008, 07:33 PM by Julian M Bucknall with | with 9 comment(s) Filed under: XtraCharts, v2008.1

• XtraCharts breaking change with ASP.NET

  We've had to make a breaking change to XtraCharts in ASP.NET in a minor release of DXperience due to an issue with the form designer in Visual Studio 2008 (I originally pointed this out here ). Here's the long and the short of it, albeit in reverse... Posted Dec 04 2007, 11:26 AM by Julian M Bucknall with | with no comments Filed under: Breaking changes, XtraCharts, VS2008

• The seat of your Gantts

  I suppose there are two main reasons for talking about Gantt charts in XtraCharts: the first is about breadth of functionality and the other is about elegance; although in the end we found that having to encapsulate the breadth of functionality also meant...

• For z-axis challenged charts, more scrolling and zooming

  Of course, as soon as I start talking about some of the new features in XtraCharts, I can guarantee I'll leave somethng out. And so it was with Zooming and Scrolling. I was so taken with the 3D charting functionality that I forgot about mentioning... Posted Jul 17 2007, 11:12 PM by Julian M Bucknall with | with 1 comment(s) Filed under: v2007.2, XtraCharts

• Give your users control of your 3D charts

  Last week I sat down with the XtraCharts developers in order to have a discussion about why they're so jazzed about the new chart enhancements in DXperience v2007 vol 2. All I can say is they certainly have a reason to be excited; sitting down with... Posted Jul 16 2007, 05:20 PM by Julian M Bucknall with | with 2 comment(s) Filed under: v2007.2, XtraCharts
