WinForms Bubble Chart: Custom Data Adapter

Flexible Data Model

MindFusion WinForms chart component reads data through a universal Series interface. This innovative approach allows the control to use literally any type of data source. You can create a custom class, which encapsulates the data you want in your particular case and assign it to the chart control. It will work fine as long as you implement the Series interface, which is a simple task. Another advantage of implementing the interface is that values are not copied into the chart's built-in data storage and performance is not affected by their data type and count. MindFusion provides several out-of-the-box Series implementations for all popular data formats - XML, database tables, DateTime values and numeric arrays.

A Variety of Export Formats

If you want to export the ready graphics a set of the most important output formats is available for you to choose from. You can create a PDF document or an SVG file, print the chart with the option of print preview or export it as a bitmap image. Each of these options will persist the graphic without any loss of quality or detail with a single method call.
