Scientific Graph Control類似于Graph控件，但它是以水平和垂直的雙坐標軸來展示信息的。這個組件通常用于表現技術類型的信息，比如電子部件當前的電壓與電流的關系。下面為大家展示用工控圖表控件ProEssentials創建的一個比較簡單的Scientific Graph Control，如下圖：

Scientific Graph能處理各種格式化的date/time值，ProEssentials date/time能處理世紀到秒的時間。

下面是ProEssentials創建Scientific Graph Control的源代碼：

void CPEView::CreateSimpleSGraph()
{
   //! Right button click to show popup menu. //
   //! Double Click to show customization dialog. //
   //! Left-Click and drag to draw zoom box. Use popup memu or 'z' to undo zoom. // 

   // Simple example show the basics of a scientific graph object. //
   // Scientific Graph's contain both YData and XData and thus data
   // is not plotted equally spaced as the graph object does.
