Several avenues of help are available to you when working with Objective Chart.
The documents listed below provide information about the features and use of Objective Chart.
User's and Programmer's Guide — The Objective Chart User's Guide provides an overview of Objective Chart architecture and features. A tutorial shows how charting capabilities can be added to a standard MFC application. Numerous "how-to" instructions and figures illustrate how various style settings affect the appearance of the chart. The User's Guide focuses on the configuration and display of a standard Objective Chart.
The Programmer's Guide is an advanced manual for Objective Chart. The more advanced features of Objective Chart, which are not required for most applications, are described. In particular, techniques for extending the capabilities of Objective Chart are discussed.
The User's and Programmer's Guide (HTML Help in ocug.chm and Portable Document Format in ocug.pdf) is located in the Docs subdirectory of your Stingray® Studio installation directory.
Class Reference — The Objective Chart Class Reference is a detailed description of the classes and methods in Objective Chart, availble in the Docs subdirectory in ocref.chm.
Samples — Objective Chart ships with a variety of samples. These samples are described briefly in Chapter 28, "Objective Chart Sample Applications." Sample Chart applications are located in the <stingray-installdir>\Samples\Chart directory.
The Objective Chart documentation can be integrated into Microsoft Visual Studio help and the MSDN library. For more information on how to do this, and a complete description of the documentation that accompanies Stingray Studio, see Section 1.4, "Product Documentation," in the Stingray Studio Getting Started Guide.
Throughout this manual and other Objective Chart documentation, the small polygonal symbols used to display data items on line and scatter graphs are called "wigets" and purposefully not "widgets."
