Graph ActiveX Control Samples [CodeProject]

• 2D Graph ActiveX Control 

Introduction

This is a simple OCX control, which allows you to plot two-dimensional data. Despite the large set of controls that comes with VC++, there is no out-of-the-box control that provides a simple and straightforward 2D data visualization. The ActiveX control tutorial by Kapil Chaturvedi inspired me to write my own control, mostly because I wanted to customize the source code when needed. Over time, the functionality of the ActiveX control became more elaborate, and finally I made decision to publish what I have in hand.

• 3D Graph ActiveX Control

Introduction

This is an ActiveX control based on the OpenGL library, which allows you to plot three-dimensional data. The control is entirely written on ATL/STL, and does not link to MFC libraries.

The control can perform the following functions:

1. Axis customization, including customizable font, colors, and titles.
2. Plot a large number of points and updating one or more plots on the graph with new data, replacing the old plot with the new plot.
3. Plot the multiple elements with individual properties such as line and point color, line width, and point size.
4. Lighting
5. Plot styles: {0 (Lines); 1 (Points); 2 (LinePoint); 3 (Surface)}
6. By setting the Projection property you should be able to change the viewing to: (0) Perspective (in which objects that are closer appear larger), and (1) Orthographic (in which the sizes and angles between objects are maintained no matter what their distance from the viewer).
7. By setting the TrackMode property you should be able to do: (1) Zooming, (2) Rotation, and (3) Panning at runtime.
