FancyBarGraph.pm: Graphs should look nice too

fancy bar graph - a module for creating bar graphs (histograms) with an emphasis on aesthetic flexibility.

(note: this will only work with GD versions 1.19 and older - due to corporate greed, gif support has been removed from the GD library)

This module was designed to serve a specific, 'one-off' purpose, but I figured that with a little extra work, and some suggestions from the community, it might be useful to someone else. So, here it is - warts and all.


You'll need GD installed first....

  • get the module (pod included) (examples are offline while i update GD)

    Todo:
  • being able to use an image tile for a background would be nice
  • maybe a 'logo' on the background ala gifgraph would be a good idea
  • stacked bar support
  • key/colour value

    any comments or suggestions welcome.

    enjoy!
