Adds new Polar Heatmaps chart type.
Features
- Added new Polar Heatmaps chart type - Added new series types which allow you to visualize heatmaps within a polar coordinate system. Some key characteristics of the Polar Heatmaps are:
- Processing up to 4 million data points.
- Fast loading speed and CPU-efficient real-time updates.
- 100 ms to fully show the heatmap populated with all the data.
- Built-in data cursor feature.
- Bilinear color interpolation between data points.
- Bar Charts - Added several features for JavaScript bar charts, including:
- A convenient API that requires minimal configuration. To create an interactive bar chart, simply plug in categorical data.
- Built-in functions:
- DataCursor.
- Sorting.
- Animations.
- Overlapping label hiding.
- Supports real-time data input.
- Different configuration options for label placement and display.
- Custom events can be added for drill-drown or extended cursor functionality.
- High-performance - Supports visualization of a few to hundreds of bar charts at top-performance.
- Fully-customizable styling options - It is now possible to override the default visual appearance.
- Coordinate Translations - This release introduces coordinate translations: a new API for translating between screen coordinates, even locations, and axis coordinates. This mainly enables a variety of important functions:
- Finds the user's interactions location along the Axes. For instance, clicking to add a data point.
- Positioning external HTML content at an Axis location. Essentially, this allows you to connect any front-end framework component to LightningChart and its Axes.

- A Getting Started guide.
