While looking for a chart module, I see a very large number
to choose from. Is there a pointer to a guide, or do folks
have recommendations, on how to evaluate and select the most
appropriate from the *::Graph* and *::Chart* modules?
My application is fairly simple: line graphs with multiple
data series and multiple axes. I have external requirements
to make it look like it came out of a pretty graphics workbench.
I'm generating graphs automatically on the fly each time the
data changes. Our data are time series, so we want to control
the X axis range (the graph always shows the entire year,
even though in February there is only data for a small part of
the year). I noticed some of the modules require the axis
and data to have the same number of elements, so I have to
rule out those modules. I'm writing PNG files, so I assume
everything will do output equally well.
Thanks.
