Greetings!
I am a C#/C++ programmer who has never used FactoryTalk. My manager has come up with an idea for a display element that is basically a stack of three pie charts, with the size of each segment being controlled dynamically. According to him, FactoryTalk does not do circles very well, and it would be easier to create an ActiveX control in C++ (or C#, if it can create ActiveX controls). I don't believe him.
A quick glance through the available elements in FactoryTalk did not show me any pre-built pie chart controls. How would I go about creating a pie chart control in FactoryTalk, or should I just go ahead and develop the ActiveX control?
Our customer has FactoryTalk version 8.10.00 (CPR 9 SR 7.4).
Thank you very much.
