Getting Started

Requirements

• Delphi with FireMonkey support.
• A platform supported by FireMonkey 3D.

The project was created as a Delphi FireMonkey component. Depending on your Delphi version, RAD Studio may update project metadata when opening the project files.

Repository Contents

The repository includes:

• U3DBarGraph.pas: main component source code.
• T3DBarGraphPackage.dproj: installable package project.
• T3DBarGraphDemo.dproj: demo application.
• Test.dproj: performance test application.

Install The Component

1. Open T3DBarGraphPackage.dproj or T3DBarGraphPackage.dpk in Delphi.
2. Build the package.
3. Install the package into the IDE.
4. The component should appear in the UofW component palette as TBarGraph.

Run The Demo

1. Open T3DBarGraphDemo.dproj.
2. Build and run the project.
3. Use the demo controls to change visual settings, scale behavior, camera state, and lighting.

Run The Performance Test

1. Open Test.dproj.
2. Build and run the project.
3. Use the 1k, 5k, 10k, and 50k buttons to compare loading and interaction at different dataset sizes.

The performance test is useful when changing rendering, picking, transparency, camera movement, or bulk data loading.
