Hi All,
I am trying to create some Chart in C#. But When i compare them to
proffesional charting tools the look and feel is just not up to the
mark. Can you please guide what i might be doing wrong?? Is it at all
possible to create real high quality images in C#. Should i start using
C++ and windows API's to create images??

Please Advice.

Thanks

Are you familiar with concepts such as anti-aliasing? All the big guys all
offer that as an option, that's the first thing that comes to mind in terms
of "beauty" of graphs. On another note, unless money is a problem, I'd
recommend just using Dundas any day of the week - it would take you years to
replicate their functionality and I LOVE their control.

Hi Craig,
Thanks for you reply. I have tried it all.... SmoothingMode,
PixelOffsetMode, Resolutions. But still i cannot get the desired
effect.
I have tried Dundas and ChartFX. I love both of them and really there
is no way i am going to be getting anywhere close to their
functionality side. But i am buiding this for a Product and my managers
want everything to be either opensource or developed by us.

So in this case i am just trying to imitate the looks of dundas/ChartFX
@ this point. Anyhelp will be really appreciated. Also if you think i
should read some book which explained Advanced techniques on GDI+ layer
that will be great as well.


Thanks Again,
Rahul
