Googling churns up a TON of charting options for Silverlight 4, but does this version of Silverlight have any kind of built in charting?<br />
<br />
What I want to do is show a pie chart, make each slice clickable, and on click generate a different pie chart with &quot;drill down&quot; information.<br />
<br />
Looking for two things in this question:<br />
<br />
1 - Does Silverlight offer anything native (no third party downloads, purchase, license, etc.)<br />
<br />
2 - Even if yes, if you know of something else you would suggest for such a need - please post the name/link/whatever of that something. &nbsp;License type is not important at this point.<br />
<br />
I'll be splitting points among any helpful answers. &nbsp;Thanks in advance

Native Silverlight Graphing - Does it exist?

Most development for the Microsoft platform is done utilizing the technologies supported by the.NET framework. Other development is done using Visual Basic for Applications (VBA) for programs like Access, Excel, Word and Outlook, with PowerShell for scripting, or with SQL for large databases.
