FusionWidgets XT Adds Gauges, Funnels, and Bullet Graphs

Last quarter, we released FusionCharts XT with enhanced JavaScript charts to bring a delightful and homogeneous charting experience across PCs, Macs, iOS and Android devices. Continuing our quest to bring rich visualizations to users across platforms and devices, we now present to you FusionWidgets XT.

All the gauges, funnel and pyramid charts, sparklines and bullet graphs that you have been relishing till now in Flash are now available for your use in JavaScript, enabling you to build dashboards that now work seamlessly on iPads and iPhones as well.

The best of both worlds

The JavaScript version of the widgets are similar to the ones in Flash, both functionally and visually. On top of that, the long awaited capabilities like dynamic resize of gauges, support for JSON data, powerful JavaScript API and enhanced options for background images have been added as part of the new XT framework of FusionCharts Suite.

Like the Flash version, the gauges support real-time update that allow them to fetch new data from server automatically at pre-configured intervals. This is useful in monitoring applications where you need to show latest values without refreshing the page.

The bullet graphs, used for creating compact executive dashboards, also have a JavaScript avatar now.

Spark charts, compact forms of line and column charts, work great when you need to display a lot of charts in a page that has limited space.
