WPF Category Chart

WPF Category Chart

This touch-enabled charting control makes visualizing category data a breeze. Built on top of a high-performing and feature-rich data chart, the category chart filters the complexities of data visualization into a simplified API that anyone can use.

Use the new Ultimate UI for WPF Category Chart Configurator to quickly configure the control and bind data directly from XAML—no code required!
