Hi, The Data Visualization assembly is really a great piece of software. However, it's very difficult to understand its place between .NET 4, the WPF Toolkit, and the Silverlight Toolkit. For exemple, I was looking for WPF Chart assembly with StackedLineSeries. Woow, I easily found your great blog. I decided to use the "Data Visualization assembly" it in my WPF 3.5 code, so i tried to find the "latest official release" of it... but didn't found anyone : neither on the WPF Toolkit, nor in the Silverlight Toolkit... I juste found one of your blog entries where we can download the entire source code. Shouldn't be the "Data Visualization assembly" an entire project on CodePlex ? It would be easier to find doc, samples, and latest releases ! Cheers, JYAnonymous

JY, Thank you for the kind words! :) The Data Visualization assembly is actually part of the WPF Toolkit (latest download: wpf.codeplex.com/.../40535) and the Silverlight Toolkit (latest download: silverlight.codeplex.com/.../43528), both on CodePlex. Because the two Toolkits are on different schedules (and so I'd have a vehicle for releasing some things out-of-band), I also created my own "all platforms at once" release which is what you found. It's always the most current code for all platforms, but you should also be able to find nearly-current bits in the Toolkit as well. :) Breaking DataVis out into its own CodePlex project is an interesting idea, but for the time being, the existing approach has seemed to make a decent amount of sense as well - Silverlight developers probably already have the Silverlight Toolkit installed and therefore the Data Visualization assembly, too. Ditto for WPF. Thanks again for your feedback and suggestions!Anonymous

Hi David, Do you know whether Microsoft plans to support 3-D charts such as area plots in future WPF&Silverlight Toolkit releases? Or does anything like that exist already? Thank you very much. My regards, LawrenceAnonymous

lawrence.pham@gl-group.com, It's hard to predict the future. :) That said, I do not know of any plans to add support for 3D charts to the WPF/Silverlight Toolkit's Data Visualization assembly.Anonymous

Derek, As I recall, that's not supported. You could try it just to be sure, but I think they'll overlap instead of grouping.Anonymous

Yeah, that seems to be the behaviour I'm getting. Any plans to support it in the future? :)Anonymous

Derek, Not that I know of, but I'm out of the loop on such decisions at this point. :)Anonymous

Grant, I'm afraid that scenario isn't supported by default. :( However, you might be able to fake it by breaking a single series with missing values into two or more series without any missing values (i.e., a shorter series for before/after each gap)?Anonymous
