ChartDirector 6.3 Released

We got the announcement of an update to ChartDirector:

[quote]Advanced Software Engineering is pleased to announce the immediate availability of ChartDirector 6.3.

ChartDirector 6.3 adds support for embedded resources in executables. As embedded resources are mostly used in desktop GUI applications (as opposed to web or command line scripts), so ChartDirector 6.3 is only released for C++ and .NET (C#, VB).

ChartDirector can use images for the chart background, pattern colors, scatter symbols, CDML icons, … In previous versions of ChartDirector, these images have to be provided using file system paths. ChartDirector 6.3 allows these images to be embedded in executables as resources, and uses “resource paths” to access them. This eliminates the need to redistribute image files with the executable.

Apart from images, font files can also be embedded as resources.
More details can be found in the ChartDirector 6.3 Release Notes.[/quote]

We’ll update our MBS Xojo ChartDirector Plugin soon, when we get the libraries and header files.

included in 18.5pr6 and newer.

Thanks Christian - Great work.
