About

TAChart is a charting LGPL component for Lazarus (TeeChart like). It contains the functions that Philippe Martinole developed for the TeleAuto project and lots of changes introduced by Luis Rodrigues while porting the Epanet application from Delphi to Lazarus. The code was then extensively rewritten, expanded and is now maintained by Alexander Klenin.

If you have questions, bug reports or feature requests, please post them to the Lazarus mailing list or TAChart board of the Lazarus forum.
