Fast Results
The new Interactive Designer in Graphics Server .NET lets you design your desired graph in just minutes. The basics like graph type, chart titles, and legend information can be added in seconds. Use one of our supplied templates for a great look or create your own. Fine tune features like backgrounds, fonts, and axis ticks with a few clicks. Easily add advanced features like unlimited annotations and statistical functions. No more hunting through hundreds of properties to find the one you need.
The ultimate new feature, though, is the ability to select, resize or move chart objects in a WYSIWYG environment.
Want your annotation in a new location? Just click and drag.
Want the chart a little bigger? Just click and drag to the desired size.
Want to line up your legend with the chart? Just click and drag.
As Ian Nelson blogs about Graphics Server .NET "dragging the individual elements of a chart into place is so much better than having to rely on trial and error as you set and reset layout properties until they're pixel perfect."
Easy to Implement Features
Graphics Server .NET 3.5 makes it easy to implement your graphing solution in a client application or a web environment. Design your graph in the Interactive Designer and then simply hook it up to your desired data. Automatically generated code behind does the rest.
Want to use AJAX technology on the web so you can update your graph without redrawing the rest of the page's html? It's easy - just use our new LiveChart control and we do everything necessary in the background. All your AJAX charting code goes into the code behind C# or VB.NET files. No JavaScript necessary.
We also make it easy to create a series of consistent looking graphs with our templates. Use and modify the supplied templates or create your own. We even provide a standalone version of the Interactive Designer that can be used by your graphics communication expert or your end-user to create the look and feel they desire. Their results can be saved as a template so all that's required is to hook it up to the data.
Cost Effective Solutions
Our pricing model is fairly unique in this industry. We only charge by the developer seat. No royalties. No server licenses. That's right - you can put your application(s) onto multiple servers without buying server licenses. Imagine the cost savings. Reduce the administrative headaches of tracking server licenses to zero.
And if you have more than 3 developers in your company we have very cost effective site and corporate licenses available. Beats the pants off those other products!
By the way, we also include controls for both Win Forms and Web Forms in the same package. We don't make you buy them twice!
