The first purpose of pChart was to provide an easy interface for drawing anti-aliased pictures using
the GD library. Then alpha-transparency and shadow supports have been integrated in addition to
all the primitive functions to draw basic shapes. pChart can be used as a high level drawing library
if you only need to create shapes & text composed pictures.
 Basic shapes with anti-aliasing |
Native anti-aliasing
pChart supports natively anti-aliasing for all basic object : line, curve, box, rounded box,
circle, polygons. The anti-aliasing algorithm is an optimised version of the one created for
the first version of pChart.

 Support for shadows |
Shadow support
You can enable or disable shadow support, define the color of the shadow, its distance to the
object and its transparency factor. Shadows are drawn using the internal anti-alias algorithm.

 Alpha transparency on all shapes |
Alpha-transparency
Alpha transparency is supported by all the primitive drawing functions. It will allow you
to create great visual results. Alpha transparency will not slow down the rendering of your
picture as it is directly computed by the GD binaries.

 Cubic -smooth- bezier curves |
Spline, cubic curves
Bored of flat charts? pChart can compute natively spline path based on a list of points in
a 2D space.
