Silverlight Data Visualization Data Chart Control
Our Silverlight data chart has been designed for handling high volumes of data ranging into the millions of data points, and into which updates can occur every few milliseconds. It spares nothing to achieve this blazing speed, which is the hallmark of Infragistics' Silverlight controls. It has also been designed to facilitate the stacking of multiple chart areas in the same chart, and overlay multiple chart layers so that your users can add statistical and technical indicators to their analyses with ease. When your application needs heavy-duty data visualization, choose our Silverlight data chart control.

We continue to push the envelope in performant, compelling data visualization. This release has been enhanced with an OLAP Axis Chart presents a graphical representation of the OLAP data source. We've introduced 15 new chart series, including Custom Series/Series Inheritance, Bar, Stacked Bar, StackedColumn, Point, StackedArea, StackedLine, StackedSpline, StackedLineArea.
A number of additional formulas have also been added to aid in your analytics and the presentation of your chart data, including: Mean, Median, Variance, Error Bars, and Correlation.
Key Features at a Glance
- OLAP Axis Chart (CTP)– An OLAP Axis Chart presents a graphical representation of the OLAP data source. Integrating our xamDataChart control with an OLAP data source gives you the opportunity to deliver a true end-user drill-down experience with large values of data in a highly visual way.
- Error Bars – Error Bars are used when you have a sample of data and you want to show how close that data is to the “true” population. Any data you can calculate a mean and standard deviation on, you can also show confidence intervals and error bars.
- 15 New Chart Series – We include 15 new chart series, including Custom Series/Series Inheritance, Bar, Stacked Bar, StackedColumn, Point, StackedArea, StackedLine, StackedSpline, StackedLineArea.
- Funnel Chart – Visually showcase diminishing values with our new funnel chart, a single series chart that displays data in a funnel shape with a variable number of sections, each representing the data as different portions of 100%. The funnel chart makes it easy for end users to illustrate value "fallout" in the sales process or bottlenecks in the flow of a multi-step process.
- Sparkline Charts – The new Sparkline control is a data-intense, design-simple graphic that allows end users to spot trends, variations and patterns in data in a clear and compact representation.
- Weighted Moving Average Trend Line – Similar to a moving average calculation, the Weighted Moving Average weights the most recent data points more heavily. The most common type of weighted moving average is exponential smoothing. These trend lines tend to be more accurate indications of volatility than simple moving averages.
- Correlation Formula – A calculated value which shows the strength of the relationship between two variables in a set, where -1 means no relationship and 1 is a perfect relationship. Correlation is a single value calculated from a set, so the series can simply expose the value as bindable, read-only property.
- High Performance Rendering – Our Silverlight chart control can display millions of data points, and update itself every few milliseconds so that it can handle your real-time feeds.
- Modular Design – This is a Silverlight chart control designed with the modularity of axes, chart areas, and chart layers taken into account. Multiple axes, multiple chart areas, and multiple chart layers are all supported.
- Financial Charting – Our Silverlight chart control excels at financial charting scenarios with support for both Candlestick and OHLC bar charts, and many built-in technical indicators like moving averages, MACD, Wilder's RSI and many more.
- Hosted Content – Using this Silverlight data chart lets you specify arbitrarily-rich hosted content for use in its captions and legend, and you can also place your own controls into the Silverlight data chart's visual tree.
- Panning and Zooming – Makes it easy for your users to get a close-up look at data points using our Silverlight chart control, because when you can show millions of data points, the individual points lose their identity when the user has completely zoomed out. Using their keyboard, zoombar, mousewheel, or drag-select any rectangular region with the mouse, end users can zoom in for greater detail on the data chart.
