C# .NET Chart Types
Bar and Column Charts
Column Charts
Compare multiple data series over time in a vertical bar or column chart. FlexChart supports displaying negative values below the axis origin.
Bar Stacked Charts
Stacked charts demonstrate the part-to-whole relationship for displaying the cumulative values of categories. FlexChart provides options to stack column charts in groups.
Bar Stacked 100 Charts
Compare percentages for each value within the total. The cumulative proportion of each stacked column always totals one hundred percent.
Bar Charts
Rotate the column chart to compare multiple, categorical data series in a basic horizontal bar chart.
Floating Bar Chart
A floating bar or range column chart shows two values, a minimum and maximum, for each column or bar. The plot can be rotated to create a Gantt-style chart as well.
Tornado Charts
Tornado charts, also known as wing bar or butterfly charts, are a variation of bar charts for comparing two sets of data values in a vertical stack of horizontal bars.
Line and Area Charts
Line Charts
Display changes in data over short and long periods of time with a basic line chart with optional symbols.
Line Stacked Charts
Stacked line chart series do not overlap because they are cumulative at each point, and ideal for visualizing the overall total.
Step Charts
Step line charts help visualize changes at a specific point. Data points are connected through vertical and horizontal lines. Display symbols or fill the area.
Spline Charts
Spline charts connect the data points with smooth lines and use numeric, category, datetime, or logarithmic axis to plot data. .NET spline charts support symbols, stacking and axis rotation.
Area Charts
Fill in the area below the line to demonstrate trends in similar categories. C# area charts support stacking, spline and axis rotation.
Range Area Charts
Fill in the area below the line to demonstrate trends in similar categories. Shows variations in the data values for a given time.
Scatter Charts
Scatter Charts
Demonstrate correlation between data points and a set of numerical data along the x-axis and the y-axis. Scatter charts combine values into single data points and display uneven intervals or clusters.
Bubble Charts
Create rich, visually appealing data modeling and financial charts with bubble charts. This .NET chart allows you to display your data series as a set of differently-sized symbols in the chart space.
C# Financial Charts
Candlestick Charts
The candlestick chart displays the Open, Close, High, and Low Stock Prices for each day in the series. The vertical bar spans the High and Low values for the day.
HLOC Charts
Also known as high-low-open-close, HLOC charts illustrate movements in the price of a financial instrument over time.
More Financial Charts
With Studio Enterprise you get FinancialChart, which includes 9 additional chart types including Heikin-Ashi, Kagi, Renko and more.
Pie and Sunburst Charts
Pie Charts
C# pie charts show how parts of a whole add up to 100%. FlexPie features include doughnut, exploded slices, animation, selection, and rotation.
Sunburst Charts
Visualize hierarchical data from a root node (center) outward to lower hierarchies. A segment of the inner circle is a parent to the segments of the outer circle which lie within the angular sweep of a parent.
Multiple Pie Charts
Use FlexPie to visualize more data in a single chart by creating multiple pie chart "series" using the same data source. An effective way of presenting data, especially if the intent is to show one section relative to the whole.
Radar and Polar Charts
Radar Charts
Display multivariate observations with an arbitrary number of variables. FlexRadar supports line, area, column, scatter and stacked chart types.
Radar Column Charts
Create a windrose chart using FlexRadar and the Column chart type. This visualization lets you display changes in the radar through radiating columns with stacking support.
Polar Charts
Create circular graphs to display multivariate observations with an arbitrary number of variables. FlexRadar can generate polar charts with lines, columns, filled areas and custom symbols.
Specialized C# Chart Types
Error Bar Charts
Error bars help you see margins of error and standard deviations at a glance. They can be shown as a standard error amount, a percentage, or a standard deviation.
Box-and-Whisker Charts
Graphically depict groups of numerical data through their quartile, mean, median and outliers.
Histogram Charts
Diagram consists of rectangles whose area is proportional to the frequency of a variable and whose width is equal to the class interval. Supports ranged axes, Gaussian/bell curve, running totals and Pareto charts.
Waterfall Charts
A waterfall chart helps understand the cumulative effect of sequentially introduced positive or negative values. Optionally, display auto-calculated intermediate totals in the waterfall chart.
BreakEven Charts
A break-even chart shows the sales volume level at which total costs equal sales. The chart plots revenue, fixed costs, and variable costs on the vertical axis, and volume on the horizontal axis.
Gantt Charts
Manage a project with a Gantt chart and never miss a step. Includes dependencies and percent complete, start and end dates for each task, and information such as completion states and task dependencies.
Funnel Charts
Visualize stages of a process, such as a sales funnel, using a funnel shape. Supports triangular or rectangular shape.
TreeMap Charts
Display hierarchical information combined with relative quantity. Highlight hierarchical, tree-structured data as a set of nested rectangles and help to analyze the anomalies in the data set.
HeatMap Chart
This specialized chart represents data values using colors and is especially useful in plotting large, complex data. Customize the discrete gradient color scale and gradient color axis.
C# .NET Chart Features
High Performance Rendering
For the fastest performance, FlexChart supports DirectX on desktop and WebGL rendering in the browser. Or, you may use the default GDI+ or SVG rendering for full feature support.
Interactive Features
Zooming and Panning
Interact with the chart using mouse or tap gestures. Use pinch gesture, mouse wheel or double click to zoom in/out.
Line Markers
Add interactive line markers or cross-hairs to show information about a specific point on your chart.
Selection and Hit-Test
Select a single data point or an entire data series in your chart. Enable touch for your chart interactions. Hit-testing helps find the closest data point.
C# Chart Style Features
Color Palettes
Quickly choose one of FlexChart's 20 built-in color palettes including sequential, diverging and qualifying palettes which are helpful in visualizing ordered or diverging data sets. Or customize your own palette with full opacity and gradient support.
Animation
Add animation when the .NET chart is loaded or when data points are updated. Choose an easing function and how to animate the data points.
Custom Axes and Gridlines
Configure the chart axes and gridlines to your desired specifications. FlexChart supports multiple axes, major and minor gridlines, tick marks, axis origin, reversed axes, rotated axis labels, logarithmic scaling and more.
C# Chart Axis Features
Scaling and Scrolling
FlexChart allows you to add axis scrollbars to the X and Y axes, allowing the user to simultaneously scroll and scale the axis to better visualize the data. This feature is supported on desktop and Blazor.
Axis Labels and Grouping
Improve chart readability by displaying hierarchical groups in axis labels. Avoid overlapping by wrapping labels to a second row or rotating the angle.
Axis Breaks
Create presentation-worthy charts by adding axis breaks to make charts with very large gaps more readable for users.
C# Chart Legend Features
Legend Grouping
Legends represent the mapping between colors, symbols, and data series on a chart. Grouping the legend items helps organize the data.
Legend Toggle
Allow users to toggle the visibility of series through the legend. This feature is toggled on or off by setting one property on FlexChart.
Custom Legends
Further customize the legend with scrolling or custom icons.
Highlight Critical Data with Range Zones
Draw instant attention to key thresholds, operating ranges, and critical data regions with built-in Range Zones in FlexChart. Easily overlay highlighted zones directly on your charts to visualize target ranges, acceptable limits, warning thresholds, or alarm conditions at a glance. Whether you're building dashboards, monitoring real-time metrics, or analyzing trends, Range Zones make important insights stand out and help users interpret data faster.
Additional Features
Data Labels and Tooltips
Display precise chart values in labels attached to each data point. FlexChart can automatically display the formatted value or percentage within labels and tooltips. Prevent data labels from overlapping so all data is visible.
Annotations
Annotations improve clarity of the chart using arbitrary text, images and shapes that can be attached to data points or plot coordinates. You can even allow end-users to edit annotations in FlexChart.
Combination Charts
Easily combine any Cartesian chart types into a single plot using FlexChart's flexible model. Each series can be set to a different chart type, allowing endless composite chart combinations.
Multiple Plot Areas
Define multiple plot areas to display plots stacked horizontally and vertically. Stacking plot areas helps visualize multiple series in a single chart.
Trendlines
Add trend lines to show trends in data and make predictions. FlexChart supports several built-in regression and non-regression trendlines such as linear, average and polynomial.
Range Selector
With the range selector, you can enable scrolling between two charts where one is a preview of all data and one is filtered (or zoomed) to the selected range for closer analysis.
