Chart
Description
A control for adding server-side Charts to a UX Component.
Contrasting Chart Control with the Javascript Chart Control
The Chart controls is a server-side control. The chart is rendered as a bitmap on the server and then the client-displays the bitmap image. Because the Chart control is a server-side control, it is not suited for disconnected applications. Also, since the Chart control is a server-side control, it will be slower than Javascript Charts. See the Javascript Chart control to add client-side charting to your component.
