Image Filters

In addition to various fill styles, the control supports image filter effects such as soft shadows, emboss, glow, blur, and lighting. These effects can be combined with the fill styles to enhance the visual impact of presentation charts.

Best Practices for using Image Filters

Avoid Overuse and Consider Performance Image filters should be primarily used in presentation charting, where performance is not critical. Using image filters for larger charts can very computationally expensive. Use Emboss to Highlight Edges Use the emboss image filter effect to highlight bar and area edges and add a sense of dimensionality to flat chart elements. Layer Effects Combine multiple filters to achieve a more refined look. For example, a slight blur on the background and an embossing on the data points elements can make the chart more visually appealing. Maintain Clarity Ensure that filters do not reduce the readability of text or important chart details. Always prioritize data clarity.
