FlashChart is a .NET tool that offers exceptional chart designing in the Macromedia Flash¿ format. It is an ideal component for creating stunning charts.
One of the best features of FlashChart is its numerous appearance settings. Almost every element of the resulting chart is adjustable, and with the ability to save settings into a separate file, users can create personalized 'style schemes' or skins. FlashChart contains around 30 ready-to-use style schemes.
Developed for the .NET Framework environment, FlashChart is designed to be compatible with both the pure .NET application and also common projects as an ActiveX component (the .NET Framework must be installed). Additionally, detailed documentation is provided in MSDN style.
FlashChart offers five chart types: column, row, line, area, and pie (pie charts are the only chart type that cannot be accumulated and normalized). This highly versatile software is also cross-platform and produces charts that are highly attractive and not static images. The resulting charts have compact file sizes and can be easily modified or saved to file. FlashChart is also shipped with 30 ready-made style schemes, leaving all the creativity in the user's hands. The resulting chart can be saved into .swf file or stream.
However, this software offers a learning curve, and for individuals inexperienced with programming, it may be difficult to set up. That being said, the documentation provided is highly detailed and will assist in overcoming any hurdles encountered. Overall, FlashChart 1.0 is a highly effective data visualization software that generates charts that are both visually attractive and highly informative.
