NetCharts® Pro Features
Graphing Toolkit For Java Professionals
Outstanding Graphics
NetCharts Pro's graphs provide feature-depth not found elsewhere:
- Three-point auto scaling
- Up to 15 (default) axes per side, multiple scales per axis
- Overlay or stacked axes
- Sophisticated numerical formatting
- Logarithmic scales, line smoothing
- Support for internationalization
- Chart updates of up to 10ms
- Gradient fills and anti-aliasing
- Rotatable fonts
- Stylesheet support
- Use logo/images for backgrounds, data points, and more
Flexible Deployment Scenarios
NetCharts Pro can chart-enable almost any Java application. These are some of the common deployment scenarios:
Drillable Graphs Get Your Users Into the Details
Deliver the right information to the right audience. From high-level information down to specific operational details-you decide how much of what information to expose. Drill down to another chart, a file, or anything that can be assigned a URL-whatever conveys the most information to your users.
Dynamic Chart Generation
Dynamic chart generation lets you update your charts with fresh data from your databases, and keeps your users in touch with the information needed to make decisions. NetCharts Pro and the Chart Definition Language are constructed so that graphs may be easily updated on the fly.
Automatic Display Features Eliminate Work, Get Applications Done Faster
Data rarely fit into a nice little box. So when data points lie outside normal axis boundaries, developers often have to wrestle with programming to get the chart and the data to peacefully coexist.
NetCharts Pro solves those problems for you and speeds you on your way to deploying your projects with these standard features:
- Automatic axis scaling lets the chart respond to the data without extra coding.
- Automatic scrolling and zooming let you see all the data available (when NetCharts Pro is used in an applet or desktop application).
- Graph layout geometry is dynamically computed at rendering time.
- Axis labels are automatically skipped or staggered to preserve readability.
Chart Definition Language (CDL)
CDL is the power behind NetCharts Pro. This simple "parameter = value" syntax for defining chart templates is what makes Visual Mining's products easy to use and the most robust interactive data visualization solutions available. Store your chart definitions in template files and then load them into NetCharts Pro along with your dynamic data to create reusable charts with minimal coding.
Robust API
The NetCharts Pro API provides object representation for each chart component, including axes, data sets, legends, titles and more. Each object contains detailed setter/getter methods, familiar to Java programmers. Data model interfaces are defined in order to simplify data translation into the chart.
