Main Changes
We’re happy to announce the third major release of the LightningChart® .NET product line. This LightningChart .NET v.10.2.1 focuses heavily on compatibility improvements. Mainly, we have resolved the issue with .NET Core 3. x and the .NET 5.0 application and added support for .NET 6.0.
In addition, we solved the issue with UWP charts, making now the charting application fully compatible with Microsoft Store.
LightningChart .NET v.10.2.1 Compatibility
We announce the full compatibility of LightningChart .NET v.10.2.1 WinForms and WPF components with .NET application. Also, we’ve added support for .NET 6.0.
UWP Charts Compatibility with Microsoft Store
The UWP charts have been introduced previously in LightningChart 10.0.1. Before it was possible to create and deploy UWP applications, but the requirements for submission to Microsoft Store were not met.
Now the issue is solved and the LightningChart UWP application can be configured to run on all supported architectures (x86, x64, ARM, ARM64).
