Automatic Data Type Detection
With this release, DXCharts can automatically detect the data type of series arguments. You no longer need to specify a scale type before providing data for a chart.
Built-in ToolTips and Crosshair Cursor
This release introduces built-in tooltips and a crosshair cursor. These features do not require a single line of code and are enabled by default where appropriate.
Tooltips can display any information about the hovered chart element. You can embed any control for tooltip content - even display another chart to represent detailed drill-down data.
A crosshair cursor provides important interactivity and allows you to track series point values in crosshair and axis labels.
