Charting software

[Jeff Trate]

Any suggestions for charting software? I need a fairly simple 2D line chart
that will allow me to update measurement data after every read without flickering.
MSChart has 0 documentation and the only way I could get it to update new
measurement data was to reassign the array to the chartdata property. The
flicker is very distracting and unappealing!

I would greatly appreciate any suggestions.

Gigasoft's stuff is good. For the best, fastest response with just the
features you need, you can't beat do-it-yourself, though. There's been a
VBPJ article on scrolling real-time graphs IIRC (5 years ago?). You should
check out Rod Stephens' book (and site). Basically, all you have to do is
draw in a picturebox, PaintPicture the whole thing a step to the left, and
draw the new data to the right of it...
