In this blog post we are going to walk through the steps necessary to build the beautiful doughnut chart that you see at the image below:
We are going to use MindFusion Charting library for Blazor and Visual Studio as the IDE for the project.
Custom diagram canvas pagination
In this post we’ll show how to implement Visio-like dynamic pagination of the diagram canvas, expanding or shrinking it while users draw nodes interactively, and rendering custom page borders. This is demonstrated using MindFusion Windows Forms Diagram control, but equivalent APIs are provided by MindFusion diagramming libraries for other platforms.

In this blog post we will build the financial chart that you see below. This is a candlestick chart created with MindFusion Charting for JavaScript. We use data from the platform TraderMade. The data comes in a continuous stream as a WebSocket. The blog post explains how to get the data, how to parse it and how to create and customize the chart. The chart also offers the user to change the data interval and to zoom in/out the chart.
Virtual Keyboard for Avalonia UI preview
We are soon releasing Avalonia version of our Virtual Keyboard control. It synthesizes keyboard events through Avalonia event routing system, so it should work on any platform supported by Avalonia UI. Unlike MindFusion Windows keyboard controls, events can be sent only to input controls in current process, and not to external processes.
In addition, language support cannot be generated automatically via OS APIs as in Windows controls, but we’ll be creating character maps for each language. Currently supported cultures that can be assigned to VirtualKeyboard.InputLocale property are en-US, fr-FR, de-DE and nl-NL.
If anyone is interested in trying the preview version, please install the nuget package –
