Alternative Chart Library

Chart2D is an alternative charting library available at:
http://chart2d.sourceforge.net

Chart2D has some features that JFreeChart doesn't have, and
JFreeChart has some features that Chart2D doesn't have.

Chart2D charts have a preferred size and they support magnification.

JFreeChart charts can plot datasets with negative values and also can plot, for each series, multiple values within one axis label (ex.
taking values by day, and squeezing them into a by month labeling scheme).

I don't have a full feature comparison yet. If anyone wants to do
that, it would be appreciated.

Thanks,
Jason

Hi Jason,

Thanks for the link...there's also another project on SourceForge that looks useful:

http://sourceforge.net/projects/jcharts

I plan to add a page of links to open-source chart projects on my site some time. Here's the ones I know about, if there are others please let me know:

JSci (look in the JSci.swing package):
