Pie chart control

[Tomaz Koritnik]

Anyone knows of free or commercial pie chart control that has this features:
- I need only 2D pie chart type
- Can be commercial but not too expensive
- Save chart to WMF or EMF
- Since chart will print on BW printers it must have labels (instead of
legend but placed arround chart) that are connected to chart sections with
lines (so it can be seen which label corespondes to which section).
- When number of chart sections and therefore gets high (>20), labels must
be nicely placed and they must not overlap. Chart should be able to
calculate positions.
- It'll be nice if it would be native .NET control and not COM, but COM
would be okay too.

There are many good chartcontrols around, infragistics and devexpress
(both correspondent to their .com names) controls are both very good.
But you could also post your question to componentsource.com

Hi,

You could also try Dundas, they have versions for both win & web apps

The following MSDN article tells you how to do this. It can be used in any
type of .Net application, not just ASP.Net.
