VARCHART XTree - Product Features

The Diagram Conception

VARCHART XTree offers to the user a variety of options to visualize data for different applications:

  • You can choose, whether the structure of the tree is to be defined by a structure code or by the ID of the parent node.
  • The appearance of nodes (color, format, background, graphics file (*.bmp), etc.) can be specified by a variety of options.
  • The node appearance is assigned to the nodes in dependence of data. (The data-controlled assignment is defined via maps or filters in form of Boole expressions.)
  • Several data fields can be displayed in a node in any order, size, font etc. Their size is dynamic.
  • The appearance of link lines can be specified.
  • The type of arrangement and the state of collapsing can be stored and reloaded.
  • Nodes can be displayed in TreeView style.
  • The total height of a tree diagram arranged vertically can be limited by setting the number of levels.
  • The VARCHART XTree control can be inserted into a HTML page so that it will be visible in a browser.

The diagrams can be customized by property pages. The powerful Application Programming Interface offers a broad variety of options that also can be modified at run time.
You can set all options to be adjusted by the user. Events let your application react to your customer's interactions (for example, to validate data). The Application Programming Interface provides a large number of properties, methods and events.
