WPF chart controls

C#Wpf Charts

C# Problem Overview

I am looking for a very simple WPF chart which should have a 2D graph and should have pan and zoom facilities .

C# Solutions

Solution 1 - C#

Free tools supporting panning / zooming:

Live Charts
ScottPlot
DynamicDataDisplay - a nice, open source data visualization library. Unfortunately it's not been updated since April 30, 2009.
OxyPlot

Free tools without built in pan / zoom support:

WPF Toolkit. Supports most important 2D charts, you'll have to implement pan / zoom yourself.
WPF Toolkit Development Release. Supports stacked charts, equivalent to the Silverlight version.

Paid tools with built in pan / zoom support:

SciChart WPF. Supports DirectX accelerated 2D & 3D charts, comes with zooming and panning, mouse-wheel with animation on zoom. (See this blog post on using zooming / panning across multiple charts)
Infragistics xamDataChart. Supports most important 2D charts, zooming and panning. See this blog article on how to use zooming.
Telerik RadChart. Supports lots of 2D charts, has some support for zooming and panning, you might need to do a little work on that.
Visifire. Supports lots of 2D charts and zooming without animation, might need to do some extra work for smoother zooming.(This service is no longer available)
DevExpress ChartControl. Supports most common 2D Series types, zooming and panning (scrolling) operations can be performed using the mouse, keyboard, and touch gestures.
Syncfusion SfChart. Supports many 2D series types and provides the interactive zooming feature that supports the touch mode. Various zoom types are supported (mouse wheel, pinch, selection).

Full Disclosure: I have been heavily involved in development of Visiblox, hence I know that library in much more detail than the others.

Solution 2 - C#

Another one is OxyPlot, which is an open-source cross-platform (WPF, Silverlight, WinForms, Mono) .Net plotting library.

Solution 3 - C#

DynamicDataDisplay is brilliant, zoom and pan built in and its free on CodePlex.

Solution 4 - C#

You can get the Silverlight Chart Controls running on WPF, they're quite nice (and free).

Solution 5 - C#

The WPF Toolkit is available. It is free from CodePlex.

It can be downloaded here. There is some commentary here.

Solution 6 - C#

The chart control in the WPF Toolkit has a horrible bug: it never forgets any of the data points. So if you try to implement a floating chart you will get out of memory after round about 3000 DataPoint-objects. This bug has been reported to MS over a year ago but nobody seems to care...

Solution 7 - C#

Sparrow Chart Toolkit a best opensource chart control for multiple platforms

I'm sure there are others

Solution 10 - C#

aM Charts are also making WPF Chart controls. Currently they only show off a pie chart, but they are set to provide new ones in short term.

Solution 11 - C#

Also DevExpress have Charts (see DevExpress.Com).
