06-19-2008
JpGraph is an OO Graph drawing library for PHP 4.3.x and above. Highlights of the available features are: text, integer/linear, and log scales for both the X and Y axes; anti-aliasing of lines; color-gradient fills; support for GIF, JPG, and PNG formats; support for two Y axes, spider plots (a.k.a Web plots), pie-charts, lineplots, filled line plots, impulse plots, bar plots, error plots, and polar plots; Gantt charts; support for multiple plot types in one graph; intelligent autoscaling; and extensive documentation (150 pages).

GD::Graph3d(3pm) User Contributed Perl Documentation GD::Graph3d(3pm) NAME
GD::Graph3D - Create 3D Graphs with GD and GD::Graph SYNOPSIS
use GD::Graph::moduleName; my @data = ( ["Sun", "Mon", "Tue", "Wed", "Thu", "Fri", "Sat"], [ 1203, 3500, 3973, 2859, 3012, 3423, 1230] ); my $graph = new GD::Graph::moduleName( 400, 300 ); $graph->set( x_label => 'Day of the week', y_label => 'Number of hits', title => 'Daily Summary of Web Site', ); my $gd = $graph->plot( @data ); Where moduleName is one of "bars3d", "lines3d" or "pie3d". DESCRIPTION
This is the GD::Graph3d extensions module. It provides 3D graphs for the GD::Graph module by Martien Verbruggen, which in turn generates graph using Lincoln Stein's GD.pm. You use these modules just as you would any of the GD::Graph modules, except that they generate 3d-looking graphs. Each graph type is described below with only the options that are unique to the 3d version. The modules are based on their 2d versions (e.g. GD::Graph::bars3d works like GD::Graph::bars), and support all the options in those. Make sure to read the documentation on GD::Graph. GD::Graph::pie3d This is merely a wrapper around GD::Graph::pie for consistency. It also sets 3d pie mode by default (which GD::Graph does as of version 1.22). All options are exactly as in GD::Graph::pie. GD::Graph::bars3d This works like GD::Graph::bars, but draws 3d bars. The following settings are new or changed in GD::Graph::bars3d. bar_depth Sets the z-direction depth of the bars. This defaults to 10. If you have a large number of bars or a small chart width, you may want to change this. A visually good value for this is approximately width_of_chart / number_of_bars. overwrite In GD::Graph::bars, multiple series of bars are normally drawn side-by-side. You can set overwrite to 1 to tell it to draw each series behind the previous one. By setting overwrite to 2 you can have them drawn on top of each other, that is the series are stacked. shading By default this is set to '1' and will shade and highlight the bars (and axes). The light source is at top-left-center which scan well for most computer users. You can disable the shading of bars and axes by specifying a false value for this option. GD::Graph::lines3d This works like GD::Graph::lines, but draws 3d line. The following settings are new or changed in GD::Graph::line3d. line_depth Sets the z-direction depth of the lines. This defaults to 10. If you have a large number of bars or a small chart width, you may want to change this. A visually good value for this is approximately width_of_chart / number_of_bars. shading By default this is set to '1' and will shade and highlight the line (and axes). The light source is at top-left-center which scan well for most computer users. You can disable the shading of lines and axes by specifiying a false value for this option. VERSION
