Harvard ChartXL 3.0 Creates Any Chart For Any Type of Data

Harvard ChartXL combines professional-level graphic and layout capabilities with advanced data organization and analysis tools to facilitate outstanding chart results, even for complex or large amounts of data. In addition to a made-over interface, Harvard ChartXL 3.0 combines the product's most important legacy features with new capabilities that bring it up to speed with current technologies and facilitate greater ease of use. A user may:

Select from Over 300 Business, Statistical and Technical Charts

Includes basic business layouts like Column, Line, and Gant, and sophisticated Box-Whiskers, Trajectories and Spectral Plots, neatly categorized as either business, statistical and technical. 2D and 3D effects can be applied to a chart with a single mouse click, while Harvard ChartXL's AutoFit technology allows a user to change styles instantly without modifying the underlying data.

Find the Best Chart for Your Data

Harvard ChartXL's "Advisor" explains the intended use for each of the 300 available charts. For example, click on "star chart" and the Advisor explains its general "usage" is for proportional comparisons. The Advisor then explains in detail how the chart's characteristics represent grouped values. A user may even edit the descriptions provided in the Advisor for customized instruction.

Manipulate Data in the Built-in Spreadsheet

In addition to supporting data input from outside spreadsheets, data may be entered directly into Harvard ChartXL's built-in spreadsheet application, designed to resemble popular spreadsheet programs for little or no learning curve. It comes complete with multiple workbooks, number, font and graphic formatting features.

View Data and Charts Simultaneously

Rather than flip-flopping between the program's spreadsheet and chart views, Harvard ChartXL provides a convenient split view option for simultaneous viewing.

Compute Trends, Averages and Interpolations with One Mouse Click

Harvard ChartXL's one-touch Business Statistics toolbar provides several icons for one-click computation of interpolations, as well as linear, exponential, polynomial, and cyclical trends, and moving averages, minimums, maximums, standard deviations and variances. The computation is displayed as a line on the chart, while the computed data is automatically placed in a separate spreadsheet.

Analyze Data with Powerful Analysis Tools

Select from one of the 69 predefined functions, define the cell range, and Harvard ChartXL quickly analyzes the formula. In addition to mainstream functions like "count" and "absolute value", Harvard ChartXL also provides "kronecker delta", "hyperbolic sine", and other functions suitable for the most eclectic analysis. Harvard ChartXL even provides a "Formula Visualizer" to aid in the creation and evaluation of equations for creating sophisticated curve and surface charts.

Create Layers of Data

With the simple "Add Data" command, data from different spreadsheets may be added to a single chart, with automatic links to update the chart if changes to the spreadsheet data occur. For example, one chart can simultaneously depict two different sets of data, the results layered as a bar and line chart.

Correct Data Entry Confusion with the Range Highlighter

The "Range Highlighter" selects the cell range in a spreadsheet where particular data should be entered. For example, a user wants to create a bubble chart, but is unsure which cells designate the "area value" in the spreadsheet. By selecting "area value" on the Range Highlighter, the relevant cell range will be both highlighted and defined for instant location.
