In this post, we will walk through the steps to create an interactive chart with a Google-Finance-esque interaction. Before we get to far into the details, let's take a look at the final product. The top chart is a line chart showing a subset of data from the greater data set. The chart on the bottom is a representation of the entire data set. You can adjust the slider on the bottom to change the granularity and scope of the data represented in the top line chart.

ILOG announced the release of Elixir 2.0 this morning. Elixir is the powerful Flex charting framework available through ILOG. Elixir 2.0 provides several new modules to Flex: a calendar, heat maps, Gannt charts and pivot/OLAP charts. I'm particularly excited about the Gannt charts. I tried to build one of my own sometime last year and found it a much more daunting task than I'd originally imagined.

Ted Patrick has a nice overview of the Elixir data visualzation and charting components that iLog has been working on. They seem to be a good example of a commercial embracing Flex to create RIA components. There is some interesting chatter about paying for commercial components in the comments on Ted's blog worth checking out.

I just saw the new Google Data Visualization Gadgets over on Infostehtics, apparently they have a whole bunch of other charts too. Sounds like they're pretty easy to use. I think this is definitely just the beginning of trend in easy to use, but rather specific, RIA mashup UIs.
