WPF Sparkline Overview
RadSparkline is a set of controls that show an information graphic. The controls are characterized by small size, excellent performance and lightweight. By definition, the sparkline is mainly used to outline trends. However, it is very flexible in terms of data points generation and can contain from just a few points, to as many as thousands of data points.
In terms of data visualization, RadSparkline is comparable to RadCartesianChart. However, in order to maximize performance, the spark lines do not utilize this many visual indicators. They also don't use an x or y axis, or multiple axes.
The RadSparkLine is part of Telerik UI for WPF, a
professional grade UI library with 160+ components for building modern and feature-rich applications. To try it out sign up for a free 30-day trial.
