v2: Customized MicroStrategy Visualization SDK Component (Flex)

This is an updated version of the previous video (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WV8-mE8BYOs). I added more controls and sound effects. I also added a voiceover. This video is itself two months out of date - I'll update it soon.

I extended the MicroStrategy Visualization Flex framework for the Business Intelligence department of a well-known Internet company. I added curve fitting routines (linear, polynomial and power law), interactive pruning of outlying data points and custom analysis abilities. I added ability to remotely browse files on server, so user preferences and report settings could be stored and retrieved from a PHP server. I provided the ability to copy computations onto the system clipboard so they could be pasted into Excel;

Currently I am working on providing the ability to save Flex reports as high quality PDFs by implementing a custom XML protocol between client and server, and walking selected portions of the Flex clients display list. PDFs are rendered on the server using a custom server-side Java code. I am also working on an Excel export facility, written in Java.

Glad you you like it. If your company has a budget for me to create something similar for your requirements, please let me know. I would be happy to make the source code for that project available to the public, so long as the company that pays for the work is agreeable.

Glad you like it. Unfortunately, this is not available to the public, my client owns the work.

WOW>...THIS IS GENIUS MAN

The sounds make for an awesome presentation. LOL

Please, Is it possible to drag the trend-line and observe the coefficients and exponents dynamically change. I understand this is strictly excel, but is there any trick the user can drag the trend-line fit and adjust it the way they want in flex. THANKYOU...You are BRILLIANT...IS THIS STILL Unavailable to public?

Really useful stuff. Is this available for public? Can you add this to TourDeFlex?
