用Microsoft Chart Controls（MSChart）实现曲线图，并支持拖动放大到秒
Microsoft Chart Controls（简称MSChart）控件，给图形统计和报表图形显示提供了很好的解决办法，同时支持Web和WinForm两种方式。
MSChart 在.NET 4.0自带的有，.NET 3.5 需要下载相应的插件（如果用的是VS2010做开发但是选择的版本是3.5的而不是默认的4.0话，请按本文介绍的.NET 3.5 进行插件安装），
官方例子（web和winform）：http://archive.msdn.microsoft.com/mschart/Release/ProjectReleases.aspx?ReleaseId=4418
插件下载地址：http://archive.msdn.microsoft.com/mschart，把下面四个下载完成后把前三个按顺序安装
- Chart Controls for .NET Framework 3.5 (Beginning in .NET Framework 4, the Chart controls are part of the .NET Framework.)
- Chart Controls for .NET Framework 3.5 Language Pack
- Chart Controls Add-on for Visual Studio 2008
- Chart Controls for .NET Framework Documentation
安装完成之后，在C:\Program Files\Microsoft Chart Controls\Assemblies可以获取到web和winform的DLL。对于.NET 3.5 只需要把 System.Windows.Forms.DataVisualization.dll 添加到工具箱即可获得图表控件。前台只需要从工具箱拖一个Chart控件即可，如下图所示：
本文用MSChart实现Winform曲线图的绘制，本文结合自己的实际项目，每个点需要显示到秒（这也是本文需要解决的关键点），刚开始照着网上的例子实现了一下，样子是出来了，但是当数据一多并且显示到秒时用鼠标进行拖动放大页面会直接卡死，后来经过自己的一番探索和研究，终于把这个问题给解决了，故把整个实现过程记录下来，和大家分享一下。
在文章的后面附上了源码，源码有详细的代码注释，一些需要注意的属性设置都有说明，可以实现刻度到秒的拖动放大，两条红色分别我定义是Min和Max值基准，是为了表达一个区间的概念。页面上绘制了一千个点，每个点上有相应的ToolTip提示。代码没有做拆分，只是把整个创建及设置的流程给描述下来，是为了让需要的朋友更好的理解和使用，第一次写博文，希望大家给予指正与支持，谢谢。
