Graph IDE™ CE (Cloud Enabled) is the same preeminent tool for data visualization and analysis as Graph IDE (also available on the Mac App Store), except cloud login is required. Cloud accounts are automatically made and are free for student use and economical for commercial use.

Once logged in, you can save documents on your Mac and keep all your data local to your computer. When you desire then you can also save those documents to the cloud and login via a web browser to work with your documents and data using the same interface anywhere in the world. In this way your data and documents are seamlessly available in many different ways. Hence, you can have both local control and when desired global access which is the best of both worlds. The standalone version is also available on the Mac App Store and does not require login. Thus, you can use this preeminent tool at an economical price with all your Mac's local processing, use it via a web browser and use it as a standalone Mac-dedicated tool for one fixed price without login.

COMPREHENSIVE FEATURES:

The Cloud Enabled edition includes most features of the Graph IDE standalone edition. See Graph IDE on the App Store and also the online manual at www.vvidget.com for a complete description. Unlike other scientific tools, Graph IDE is developed with the latest and best Mac-specific API without any emulation or cross-platform technology. That means you get the best Mac experience possible and because of its unique design gain access to many other features and ways of working. In this way, Graph IDE is Mac and also beyond Mac.

SECURITY:

Your data remains on your Mac and hence is as secure as your Mac is. When you desire then your data can be transmitted to the cloud via industry standard TLS 1.3 encryption. Optionally, you can setup a local cloud service (contact support@vvi.com for details) and transmit using your existing LAN or VPN. In the case of an already secured network, documents and data can be transmitted using highly optimized built-in network communication without the typical overhead of SOA web-based services.

SUPPORT:

Graph IDE (and CE) is a professional tool with many extended features. It is designed for casual use to corporate graphic artist and data analysis and visualization. Hence, many of the feature are very accessible but many other features require specialized knowledge. For corporate training please contact support@vvi.com.

Release notes:
In order to maintain Graph IDE as the preeminent tool for data visualization and analysis the following improvements have been made:

• The Printing (PDF generation) features have been significantly improved. For example, Graph IDE can paginate a view by tiles but also loads separate pages of a document on demand. This version can optionally load and print all pages within a Graph IDE document thus serializing the document pages, and view tiles, into a single PDF document.
• The Chart Tasks are easy-to-use wizards which have limited settings. Chart Tasks now incorporate the Export tool to export a graph to a Graph IDE document where there are many more settings. Exporting use to be done via a service-oriented API but is now done totally internal to Graph IDE thus circumventing system and sandbox limitations. A side effect is that exporting is now faster and more reliable (in the sense that macOS does not intercept and attempt to process the export in a site-specific way).
• The Chart Tasks advertisement banner (advertising Graph IDE only) has been removed while logged in. This single banner was shown due to a code redesign but is now reverted to not shown.
• The Chart Tasks Bar and Column Chart wizard (task) assumed a categorical independent variable until there are more than twenty independent values and no custom axis labels. When this limit was exceeded then the autoscaler would not be invoked until the task view was refreshed. This behavior has been fixed so that the transition between categorical and continuous produces the desired result.
• The user interface and also data visualization has been optimized further and is faster than ever. Each iteration of Graph IDE incorporates incremental code improvements. Since Graph IDE directly uses the native graphics API in macOS it can directly take advantage of GPU improvements with Apple Silicon thus making code improvements the only means of optimization.
• Our efforts are to reduce bugs to zero. One critical bug was detected and fixed; it was encountered while using spreadsheets, activating the event qualifier, deactivating it and then performing a lengthy sequence of additional user interface operations. Critical bugs are very important to fix and if you encounter a critical bug, or non-critical bug, then please report it to support@vvi.com.

While using Graph IDE please keep in mind that your satisfaction is paramount which means that existing features need to be exceptional while new features demonstrate continual progress to better data visualization and analysis tools for the entire community.
