I've not used Qt directly. The coding for it is a bit odd, IIRC, which leaves some people a bit cold. Some linkshttp://lists.trolltech.com/qt-interest/2000-03/thread00492-0.htmlhttp://web.mit.edu/qt-dynamic_v4.2.1/www/itemviews-chart.html

I'm actually using SDL(www.libsdl.org) for graphs' stuff. I'm using OpenGL and have encapsulated the graph drawer into a separate C++ class - works fine for now. I don't really like the Qt interface while SDL uses native api... P.S. It's free too =)
