RadChart supports a broad variety of chart types. Some of the most widely used types include: Area, Bar, Line, Point, Bubble, Pie, Gantt, Spline, Bezier. The chart types are available both in horizontal and vertical formats. 

RadChart takes intuitiveness to another level with full support for the Design mode of Microsoft^© Visual Studio .NET and WebMatrix. This allows you to easily build and configure charts and experiment with the various settings on-the-fly. The design-time rendered image will look exactly as it would appear in a web-browser, eliminating the need for frequent and time-consuming builds.

Building highly appealing charts is very easy thanks to the support for gradient fills, hatch fills, and image fills, which can be applied to all chart elements. This approach allows you to increase the chart readability, enhance the visual appeal, and achieve a 3D effect. The rich set of options gives you full control over the gradient colors (gradient to transparency is also supported), direction, focus, hatch style, etc.

With Radchart it is possible to specify a different chart  type for each data serie. For example, you can combine an Area and a Line chart, or a Bar and a Line chart

Image maps allow you to define interactive areas within an image, which can be used for navigation to different pages (e.g. drill-down) and displaying tool tips.

With the postback events you can easily control the application behavior depending on a clicked chart item. The postback event handler allows you to get the clicked series, series item or legend item.

This is a selection process, whereby a sub-set of data is displayed when the user clicks on a data point or corresponding legend item. In RadChart the drill-down functionality is implemented in two ways: using the postback event or by the client-side image maps.

Axes can automatically expand (or shrink) to accommodate dynamically added (or removed) axis marks, data points, etc

The X axis of RadChart can be easily set as a numerical axis. As a result, you can set the series items on the right location depending on their XValue property. This is especially important when you receive data, which does not come on a regular basis and the chart has a time axis.

RadChart provides you with the ability to display time, date, currency, scientific, percent, etc. as axis label. You can also rotate the axis labels, change their color, font, min and max value, etc.

You have the ability to control the appearance of the legend manually. Additionally you can also define image map for the legend.

With Radchart it is possible to define the origin, end, and step for axes, range, or item per item, using the XML configuration file or programmatically.

Chart Title and Legend can be docked inside or outside the Chart Area, specifying alignment and distances from the margins.

Radchart is not limited only to positive values or zero. For all types of charts, excluding Pie charts, negative values are also allowed.

State management allows you to persist the data and/or properties on the client, instead of retrieving it from a database or remotely. This feature significantly accelerates the process of chart rendering.

Allows for custom formatting of item values - i.e. currency, decimal digits, scientific notation, thousands separator, special formatting, etc.
