"We've been using Olectra Chart to build a network management application
and have found the quality to be rock solid. The advantage for us is the
ability to quickly build a powerful interface with minimal investment on
our part. The performance is great, and the technical support has been
awesome."

2D
|
Olectra Chart's powerful 2D control can display virtually any type of
chart including bar charts, X-Y plots, pie charts, area graphs, financial
graphs and logarithmic scientific charts. You can easily create line
graphs, scatter plots, candle graphs, high-low-close charts, scrolling
strip charts, vector plots, impulse charts and even complex combination
graphs, by setting a few properties. And Olectra Chart is fast enough for
real-time applications displaying changing data, such as scientific
measurements, financial data or network statistics.

Ultimate 2D Charting
"Olectra Chart is by far
the most complete and
robust charting component
on the market. Software
developers can easily
produce sophisticated charts
in just a few minutes."

- Object-Based Design
- Over 100 objects are included in the 2D Control
(axis, legend, etc.).
- Data
- May come from any source, be updated at any time, and be any size.
Store data in a grid/array format or in a set of X-Y pairs.
Missing values (holes) are also supported.
- Axis
- Defaults for X- and Y-axes minimums, maximums, origins, precision
and numbering, ticking and grid increments are all automatically calculated
from the data, or they may be specified. Reversed, logarithmic and dual
Y-axes are supported. The second Y-axis may have a linear relationship to
the first, or may be used to graph a second distinct range of data.
- Time and Date Axis
- Can be used with any 2D chart. Select the date and
time format or allow it to automatically adjust at runtime.
- Line and Point Styles
- Are fully adjustable including sizes, styles and colors.
- Bar Charts
- May be horizontal or vertical. Bars may be stacked or in
separate clusters. The relative width of the bars and the amount of bar
overlap can be adjusted.
- Pie Charts
- Slices may be any color or fill pattern. Adjust the style and
threshold of the pie chart's "other" slice.
- Chart Labels
- Any number of multi-line text areas may be specified and
attached anywhere - to data displayed in the graph, or to graph or pixel
coordinates.
- Interaction
- Select the built-in zoom and rotation, or turn it off. User
interaction methods tell you exactly where the user is pointing so you can
design drill-downs.
- 3D-Look
- 2D charts like bar and pie charts can be displayed with a
user-adjustable "3D Look".

3D
|
For stunning, interactive 3D data displays, Olectra Chart is the
ultimate charting control. Design spectacular 3D surface plots, contour
graphs and bar charts. The advanced 3D control performs all rotation,
scaling, annotation and perspective calculations for you. Olectra Chart
automatically contours and zones 3D data, automatically annotates the axis,
automatically generates legends, and allows users to dynamically rotate,
zoom and scale views.
Rotating, Zooming, Scaling
End-users can easily rotate, zoom or scale Olectra Chart 3D graphs by
dragging the mouse on the graph. Your users will be able to rotate around a
specific axis, and view a special preview cube or the entire graph as they
rotate.
The Power of Object-Oriented Properties
Developers and end-users easily manipulate charts and graphs with Olectra
Chart's powerful object-based API.

Ultimate 3D Charting
"We found that Olectra Chart
has features the competition
couldn't touch. Its fast
performance and overall
flexibility are unmatched.
The built-in zooming and
rotation features provided
us with functionality we
didn't think possible."

- Object-Based Design
- Over 90 objects are included in the 3D Control (axis,
legend, etc.).
- Data
- May come from any source, be updated at any time and may be any
size. Z-value grids may be regular or irregular and can contain missing
values (holes).
- Axis
- You specify the values or use the default values for X-, Y- and
Z-axes minimums and maximums. Alternatively, you specify the chart labels
corresponding to rows and columns in the data, or label specific points
along an axis.
- Chart Labels
- Multi-line chart labels are unlimited, use as many as you
need to annotate important points, and attach to a 3D grid index, a 3D
point or a pixel.
Interaction: Select the built-in zoom, rotate and scale, or turn it off.
User interaction methods tell you exactly where the user is pointing so you
can design drill-downs.
- Data Sampling and Thinning
- Routines for both sampling and thinning are
included.
- 4D Chart
- You can create a 4D chart by draping the shading from one dataset
over the surface defined by another dataset.
- Zone and Contour Styles
- Specify your own zoning and contouring styles
(e.g., make every 5th contour level a thick, red dashed line).
- Customize Distribution
- Override the built-in linear distribution method
with your own.
