Our upcoming release will include a new WPF TreeMap Control - a powerful way to visualize hierarchical or flat data using nested rectangles. If you are not familiar with TreeMaps and their possible use-cases, the following Wikipedia article provides a good background on TreeMaps.
Appearance and Behavior Customization
As you'd expect, our WPF TreeMap allows you to specify the layout algorithm used to arrange tree map items. The following options are supported out of the box.
| Algorithm | Example |
Slice
and Dice |  |
Squarified |  |
Striped |  |
Should your needs dictate a different layout algorithm, you can design derivatives as needed.
With the use of Colorizers, you can specify TreeMap colors automatically. The list below includes all colorizers shipped with the Tree Map.
| Colorizer | Example |
Palette |  |
Gradient |  |
Group
Gradient |  |
Range |  |
Just like layout algorithms, you can implement your custom colorizer when needed.
Finally, the TreeMap control supports interactivity features, such as selection, highlighting and tooltips.
