3D charts in silverlight 4 without using 3rd party

问题:

Is it possible to create 3D charts in silverlight 4 without using 3rd party control?

回答1:

Yes, Controls from 3rd party like ComponentArt are available to do that. But the limitation that we faced was they were not accurate.

回答2:

You could use the PlaneProjections to get a 3D effect or you would have to use Silverlight 5 (in beta at the moment) which supports a 3D API.

In both cases you will need to program the chart completely.

As others have said, sure it is possible but is it worth your time when you could buy a great looking one that provides support? Telerik has a wide variety of 3D Charts that you can review at the links provided below:
