I wanted to build visually stunning graphs and charts ( with some animation, drill-down and interactivity in it) in an existing asp.net application. The application is build using vs 2008.

I have two questions...

  1. Which version of Silverlight will be best suited for this (v3 or v4) ?
  2. What is the best option to create Charts and Graphs and embed it within the existing asp.net application ?

Note: I wanted to use Silverlight based charts only.

A: 

Do you have a specification that says you must use silverlight? I would suggest using Highcharts its an amazingly awesome javascript based charting library.. Its really easy to use and has a TON of charts!

Yes we wanted to move towards Silverlight based interactive and animated reports as well as screens. We have a push from the Management.

A: 

I have started using visifire. It offers really amazing charts and graphs and even we can even play with its code. It is also well supported by the visifire developer community.
