ProEssentials is accepted as the leading charting software development tool for engineering, manufacturing, financial, and handling larger data-sets due to ProEssentials' superior speed, quantity of features, and attention to rendering and end-user detail.

Designed to automate data visualization within custom charting software programs and web sites. ProEssentials seamlessly embeds into your software and web site.

ProEssentials Lite will allow you to make custom charts and graphs with great ease.

Requirements:

· Microsoft Visual Studio.NET 2005, 2003, and 2002
· Visual Studio 6.0
· Visual Basic 6.0
· Delphi/Builder


Limitations:

· For the first 30 days, there will be an evaluation prompt in the bottom left corner of image. After 30 days, this prompt moves to the center of the image but the evaluation still functions.
· The Lite version is limited to 1000 data points and 100 annotations.

What's New in This Release: [ read full changelog ]

· Fixed an issue with CursorMode and CursorPromptTracking combined with TXAxisComparisonSubsets.
· Fixed an issue with movable GraphAnnotations combined with data requiring high precision.
· Improved fonts and rendering quality by reducing proportional font sizes for very long and narrow charts.
· Serialization was storing cursor handles and this has been removed. Serialization will now restore cursors to default internal cursors settings. This could potentially alter current code behavior but would be very rare. If setting custom hand or arrow mouse cursors and temporarily persisting, you will have to reset your custom cursor settings upon your restore.
· Fixed Daylight savings for cases where Hour setting is zero. NewFoundland time for example.
· Fixed PEvsetA for use with string property arrays.
· When ZoomInterfaceOnly is non zero, the zoom threshold is reduced to one pixel instead of the default 20 pixels.
· Made a change to prevent subset-legend area from getting larger than 1/2 of chart height. SubsetLabel font sizes will be reduced to fit. Could potentially alter a chart's look if using many subsets in a legend but overall improves quality when allowing sizing of chart.
· Fixed a slow draw issue with Area plotting method and NoHiddenLinesInArea feature.
· Fixed polar charts not supporting ImageAdjustLeft / ImageAdjustRight properties.
· Fixed problem with using both DeskBitmaps and GraphBitmaps with gradient start and end colors identical.
· Fixed Log Scales, non exponential labels, comma formatting.
· Fixed a label positioning issue with X Axis Vertical Log scales combined with LogScaleExpLabels false.
· New feature, ShowRYAxis = 5 will hide bottom y axis for RoseCharts.
· Fixed polar chart not supporting Area plotting method.
· Fixed YearMonthDayPrompt = Enabled when GdiPlus was used to render text.
· Fix to now sort High-Low area plotting method when using PlottingMethods property array.
· Rendering improvement, mono-chrome area, areastacked, high-low area plotting methods, now removed white border as it could misrepresent the data when large data sets were used.
· Fix with PlottingMethods() and legend not using correct colors with High-Low area charts.
