A new version of AnyChart Stock and Financial Charts is available – AnyStock 1.1.1.
In this version, a new navigation feature has been added: users can now quickly select a particular area of a plot by holding the SHIFT key and moving a mouse, the video below illustrates this feature (and you can do it yourself on any AnyStock chart):
There is also an update of our help materials: a new sample has been added to Online HTML/JS Samples Center: Synchronizing Selected ranges in Two Different Chart Objects.
Two bugs have been fixed. Firstly, when allow_edit attribute forbids editing annotations, the points beneath them are now highlighted correctly. Secondly, using the applySettingsChanges() method no longer makes annotations invisible, and doesn’t prevent from adding new annotations.
Here is the roadmap for future versions of AnyStock: http://6.anychart.com/products/anystock7/roadmap/

AnyChart Stock and Financial Charts is a powerful tool for visualizing any time-based data, not only financial one. For example, AnyStock can perfectly deal with the results of geoscience surveys, which include gathering and analyzing large amounts of data, both real-time and historical.
The success story we are publishing today is about UNAVCO – a non-profit consortium that is dedicated to geoscience research and education using geodesy. UNAVCO collects, stores and makes available to the research community terabytes of geodetic and related time-series data. Much of this data originates from the Plate Boundary Observatory which is a network of over 1,100 permanent GPS stations located in the western U.S., Alaska, Canada and Baja California. These stations measure the slow deformation of the earth’s crust to sub-centimeter accuracy.
The challenge was:
- To plot real-time GPS positions generated by over 300 stations in the PBO network for display on our website.
- To provide researchers time-series plots of hourly meteorological data, collected by station instruments, for the purpose of evaluating environmental factors influencing GPS signals.
- To provide end users the ability of scaling and scrolling time-series plots on-the-fly.
AnyChart Stock and Financial Charts was chosen, being an instrument with full feature set for creating real-time streaming (new data is added without reloading plots). AnyStock also provides rich format, pan and zoom options for easy navigation, which allows working with long term and large data sets.

Today we publish a new success story: HeadHunter have chosen AnyStock to visualise hh.index.
HeadHunter, founded in 2000, is a leading Russian Internet recruitment company. Its main asset is the hh.ru site, with a base of 120 thousand job offers and 5.5 million CVs. Companies invite through this site 140 thousand candidates weekly. HeadHunter is a part of Mail.Ru Group – a major Russian Internet company, leading in the number of monthly unique visitors in Russian Internet segment, the owner of ICQ instant messaging service and many other IT companies.
The challenge was to visualize hh.index — the balance between the number of resumes and the number of vacancies submitted at the site for a particular period of time, which is an important index of business and economical activity and requires quality tools. It was needed that chart could be customized on-the-fly.
AnyChart Stock and Financial Charts were chosen, being an excellent tool for visualizing time-based data. It allows creating fully customizable interactive charts, displaying long term data sets in a comprehensible form.

We 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.
