Introducing Quick Charts for WPF & Silverlight

Wednesday, February 10th, 2010

We have just released a first public beta of our new product – amCharts Quick Charts for WPF & Silverlight. It’s a free and open source charting control set for both Silverlight and WPF.

Quick Charts motto is: Ease of Use, Speed, Small Footprint. It is amCharts Bundle’s little brother. It has less features, but concentrates on what’s important for the majority of users. In order to achieve this we didn’t just strip the features off of amCharts Bundle, but created Quick Charts from scratch.

Current release supports line and column charts only. Support for other chart types coming soon.

Introducing Premium Map Pack 2.0

Tuesday, February 2nd, 2010

What is it?

We’re extremely happy to announce a new addition to our offerings – Premium Map Pack. It is a result of months of scrupulous work. There are two main aspects that set maps from the new pack apart:

  1. Increased level of detail. We took extreme care of making those maps as accurate and as detailed as possible. Coastlines, pennisulas, fjords, borders, are now presented in greater detail and accuracy.
  2. Number of countries. World map now includes even more countries, territories and even tiny island nations. All in all 252 areas are represented!

Current version of the Premium Map Pack includes four maps:

  • World
  • World with Antarctica
  • World in Continents
  • Europe

We will be adding the rest of the continens over the course of the coming weeks and possibly even other interesting maps in the future.

Check out a couple of sample strips from the Premium World map: Europe and America.
