Using the OrgChart Class

Use the OrgChart class to create organization charts. An organization chart represents hierarchical data as boxes arrayed in levels, which can be oriented top to bottom, with horizontal rows, or left to right, with vertical rows. Connectors show parent and child relationships between boxes on adjacent levels.

You can use this chart type to display many different types of hierarchical relationships, including, but not limited to:

• People in organizations

• Positions in organizations

• Departments in organizations

• Components in bills of materials

This section provides an overview of organization chart terminology and discusses how to use the OrgChart Class.
