User (Legacy) Posted August 15, 2006 Report Posted August 15, 2006 Hi there, My current version of ChartFX is 6.0.839.0. I develop for WinForms via VS 2005. I've been using ChartFX for WinForms for many years and it's run flawlessly. Today, I installed the Beta2 release of Windows Vista and ran my application. ChartFX now occasionally throws an exception deep inside the painting code. It doesn't happen often. As far as I can tell, it's taking place when the chart is forced to repaint itself due to another application window being dragged so as to reveal part of the chart. In any case, Vista is in beta so I know I can't complain, but it got me to thinking about upgrade paths. I'm a bit confused by all of the different versions that you're offering. I don't mind paying for the latest version so long as my previous code compiles. What's the latest and greatest version of CFX/WinForms that supports the same API that I'm using today? Have you been testing it using Vista at all? I don't (neccessarily) need it to support all of the cool transparency features of Vista. My only desire is that it supports the 6.0.* API. Thanks, Johnny

Software FX Posted August 18, 2006 Report Posted August 18, 2006 Yes. 7.0 has a new redesigned API, however we provide a wrapper object that supports most of the old API to make migration easier. Another important thing to mention is that Chart FX 7 uses the .NET Framework 2.0 and it integrates with Visual Studio 2005. -- Francisco Padron www.chartfx.com
