Its main caracteristics are :
* Pie Series

* Line Series (can work as Point Series)
* Unlimited number of graphs
* Unlimited number of points
* Graph legend
* Graph title
* Graph footer
* Axis labels
* Interactive zoom
* Reticule or vertical reticule with point measure
* Mirror on X axis
* Auto or manual graph limits
* Smart marks drawing
* Vertical and horizontal line graph type
* Easily extensible to new graph types
Why Create This
---------------
I've been porting Epanet from Delphi into Lazarus, since I need a TeeChart like component and TeeChart was not free
I had to build a new component.
I looked arround the net for a good component and found Philippe's TAChart and decided to improve it.
There is still plenty of bugs on the component but at least it works with all the cases I need. I will continue to develop
this, but since it's allready working I decided to submit to general review.
