Last year the Visiblox development team ported Visiblox Charts to Windows 8, and we shared a beta release with you. Since then we’ve been busy tuning and polishing, and 3 weeks ago this port was released as part of Visiblox 4.0. Here we'll share our experiences with you and show you some examples of what you can achive with Visiblox on Windows 8.

The 4.0 release of Visiblox brings with it even more performance, in the form of DirectX based charts. Read on for a run through of what this means for you.

After a long period of development we have now released Visiblox Charts 4.0. The new features are definitely worth the wait. The other big news is our new simplified pricing structure alongside new options on source code availability and support. Let’s get straight into the detail.

We’ve decided that we’ve teased you for long enough now and it’s time to let you have at it. Visiblox Charts for WinRT is now in open beta and we’re really excited! Build applications with interactive, dynamic and fully customisable charts for desktop and tablets using the new WinRT environment for Microsoft’s Windows 8 and Windows RT.

One of new features in v3.0 is the PointRendered event. It is raised whenever Visiblox has finished rendering a point and gives its handler access to the data point and FrameworkElement representing that point. This opens up a whole range of possibilities, as described in this post.
