Microsoft Chart for ASP.NET 3.5: Correctly setting image storage location

By , 12/24/2009 2:25 PM

If you’re using Microsoft Chart control for .NET 3.5 you can specify where and how chart images are stored. And if for this purpose you’re trying to use Chart HTTP Handler setting in web config similar to this:

<add key="ChartImageHandler" value="storage=file;url=./Temp"/>

and it is failing (for example chart images are alway created in the root folder of your Web application) – there is an alternative. You can specify location of the images in properties of the chart control itself:

Just add relative path to your storage folder in front of the chart sequence string in “ImageLocation” property. and specify “UseImageLocation” for “ImageStorageMode” property

GLADINET: Cloud storage on your desktop

Gladinet released a very cool Windows client that allows you to mount online storage spaces from different providers (like Amazon, Google, Microsoft) as an ordinary desktop drive.

I tried it with Microsoft’s own SkyDrive (did I mention that they offer 25Gb of storage space for free?)

and it works like magic.

Now who couldn’t use 25Gb of storage space always available from anywhere in the world?
