For the moment it contains 200+ country maps and one world map. We are planning to extend this collection, and, of course, the ability to create custom maps is available. See Map Collection CDN Page >> Take a look at the Map Collection in AnyChart Playground >> |

Eugeniy Stern Recommends AnyGantt to His Clients
April 11th, 2011 by Margaret SkomorokhWe are happy to publish a new success story, this time about Eugeniy Stern – an independent SAP development consultant, who has been working in this field since 1997, assisting large enterprises in oil-producing, oil-refining and transport industries. In some of his projects, he used AnyGantt.
The SAP NetWeaver technology platform enables the composition, provisioning, and management of SAP as well as non-SAP enterprise software applications. There is a built-in solution for creating Gantt charts, but it was found lacking visual appeal needed for business reporting.
After a market research, it appeared that AnyGantt fits best of all the charting components. AnyGantt was recommended to the clients, and during this year, a few projects using AnyGantt in SAP NetWeaver will be launched.
The story can be found here: Eugeniy Stern Recommends AnyGantt to His Clients >>

Knowledgebase Updates
February 16th, 2011 by Margaret SkomorokhDon’t forget that we have a knowledgebase: https://www.anychart.com/kb
We have already written about it before: https://www.anychart.com/blog/2009/06/30/anychart-knowledge-base
We do our best to update it as and when necessary and recently have added a few articles:
AnyChart
- How to display all axis labels?
- Is it possible to refresh chart every X seconds?
- How to insert point custom attributes when data is in JSON format?
AnyGantt
We want to note that this problem: Documentation doesn’t display properly in Internet Explorer 7 and later has lost relevance in AnyChart 5.1.2.5
P.S. We are very pleased that our customers often find a minute to thank us and we have eventually added a testimonials page: https://www.anychart.com/company/testimonials.php
Thanks to everybody who has spoken out or not.
