Key Features

  • 2D Chart Types- Options include XY plots, area graphs, bar charts, pie charts, high-low plots, candlestick plots, stacked bar charts, 2D cell-arrays, scatter plots, plus pie and bar charts with 3D perspective.
  • 3D Chart Types- Options include surface plots, contour plots, bar charts - all with real-time rotation and perspective views.
  • Combination Charts- Multiple charts and different chart types can be combined on the same chart to produce composite graphs, e.g. share price ranges as a high-low plot and volume traded as a histogram.
  • Configurable Chart Appearance- All aspects of chart appearance are fully controllable through built-in resources and functions, including axis color, background color, line style, thickness and color, marker symbol style and color, legend placement, font, color, orientation, etc.
  • Smart Defaults- All ChartObject components have sensible defaults for quick, attractive displays. A complete set of resources and manipulators is provided for fine control of every ChartObject component.
  • Built-in Editors- End users can change the display attributes of any chart element through built-in or custom control panels, simply by double clicking on any chart element.
  • Chart Annotation- Graphic objects and the ObjectEditor library can be used to add labels, lines, arrows, boxes, symbols, images, and other annotations to graphs, charts, and labels.
  • Graphic Overlays- Text and any graphic design element, including images, can be added to any chart. All graphic objects are scalable and rotatable, and a built-in symbol editor enables the user to create report quality on-screen and hardcopy presentations.
  • Data Selection and Picking- Click on any point on a 2D plot and the corresponding data object and value can be returned.
  • Curve Editing- Point and curves can be edited, and the corresponding data tables updated.
  • Data Objects- Data is encapsulated as simple objects which serve as models in the Model View Controller paradigm. Several data formats are supported through ChartObject subclasses.
  • Full Support of Motif Drag and Drop- Charts can be created by selecting a range of cells in EditTable (or another chart) and dropping them on a ChartObject. Chart elements can be moved, copied, and linked via drag and drop.
  • Dynamic Live Links- Data displayed in a ChartObject can be linked dynamically to views in other charts or tables. ChartObject supports live links to real-time data.
  • Double Precision Accuracy- 32-bit numerical accuracy is standard, and 64-bit accuracy is an option.
  • ASCII Input- ChartObject descriptions can be saved to and retrieved from ASCII files. Data objects can be input through ASCII file import methods.
  • Portable- Available for Sun (SunOS and Solaris), IBM, SGI, HP, and Solaris X86 environments, and also on Windows NT via DataFocus NuTCRACKER® libraries.
  • GUI Builder Integration- ChartObject is fully integrated with leading GUI builders, including Builder XcessoryT, UIM/X, X Designer®, TeleUSE, and others, enabling you to use ChartObject from your standard GUI design palette.
