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.

Visiblox 3.0 contains a number of new series types, two of which are HeatPlotSeries and RasterContourSeries. We'll explore how to use them in this blog post.

Those of you who've upgraded to 3.0 may have noticed a change in the way ContextMenus work. Since the new Behaviour API now subscribes to right button clicks on the mouse, those events are now considered handled and so a ContextMenu doesn't open. This post describes a new ContextMenuBehaviour that brings back ContextMenu functionality.

One of the features we've worked on for the v3.0 release is the Behaviour API. We've listened to your feature requests and the chart now supports a whole new range of inputs. This blog post describes some of the new functionality and how it works out-of-the-box as well as how to customise it to your needs. We've also included an example chart demonstrating what is now possible.

Sometimes you might want to plot large amounts of data. One way of doing so without losing any performance is to filter the data - previous blog posts have introduced how to filter data. This post gives an example chart featuring a data set with hundreds of thousands of points and shows how using filtering, alongside other performance tweaks, means that very large data sets can be rendered effortlessly.
