Open Source Projects SM2DGraphView |
Download (1.2MB disk image) The SM2DGraphView framework is an open source project that makes adding nice looking graphs and/or pie charts to your Cocoa application a breeze. Below is a screen shot of the test application included with the framework project. |

Complete documentation for the framework is available on this site and is also included in the distribution available for download.

This framework provides an NSView subclass which draws a graph of lines and/or bars including axis labels. The SM2DGraphView class acts very much like an NSTableView or NSBrowser; SM2DGraphView takes responsibility for all of the drawing code but relies on a data source object to provide the specific lines and points to draw. A delegate object can also be assigned to a graph object to modify the behavior of the graph view.
This framework also provides an NSView subclass which draws a pie chart. The SMPieChartView class acts very much like an NSTableView or NSBrowser; SMPieChartView takes responsibility for all of the drawing code but relies on a data source object to provide the specific sizes of the pie slices to draw. A delegate object can also be assigned to a pie chart object to modify the behavior of the pie chart view.
The SM2DGraphView framework is a very easy to use graph view that should work admirably for the average non-scientific application. Neither the SM2DGraphView class nor the SMPieChartView class is thread safe; they are not coded for really high performance drawing. The SM2DGraphView class does take advantage of the Velocity Engine on G4 and G5 CPUs when working with lines containing 64 or more data points. If you need to draw lines with millions of data points, you should look for other alternatives.
