  future plans?
Posted by Mark R. on May-05-2010 22:50
Hello,

Just wondering if Peter could take a moment and outline his future development plans for ChartDirector. I understand that providing too many details can yield a competitive disadvantage, but even a high-level roadmap would be appreciated.

Many thanks.

Hi Mark,

We still have hundreds of features we would like to implement in future versions of ChartDirector. At a very high level, they are:

- More advanced user interactions

- Direct support for more output format/frameworks - we are considering PDF, Flash, SilverLight, HTML 5.

- More sophisticated 3D effects (like the one in the surface charts)

- More chart types, graphical effects

Unluckily, there is no too much details I can disclose.

Regards
Peter Kwan

Hi Peter,

Thanks for sharing your thoughts on this.

Do you have a rough estimate on when the next release might appear?

Hi Mark,

The next release (Ver 5.1) should be out before the end of the year.
