Please use the included VB6 and VB2008 sample as reference. 

For Visual Basic 2008 examples, check out the following

1. UltimaPanel in VB2008
2. UltimaSpectrogram in VB2008
3. DemoWaterfall1024 in VB2008
4. DemoXChart in VB2008

Note: When using superkey, Bonus features should be modified in program instead of the immediate property panel of the control. For example

UltimaWaterfall.Key = "T1c2f345"    
UltimaWaterfall.ScalingMethod= uwBGR

Properties: ChartDirection, ChartType, ColorDepth, ColodrScale, ScalingMethod, Data, Key

Methods: Chart, Copy2Clipboard, ChartNow

Event: CrossHair 

ChartDirection: Direction of the waterfall flow

uwR2L: From right to left (Not available for 3D chart)
uwSlope: 45 degree from lower left corner to upper right
uwB2T: From bottom to top
uwT2B: From top to bottom 
uwNSlope: -45 degree from upper left corner to lower right

ColorScale (index) = OLE_COLOR : Customize the color scale. The modification of this property is offered as a bonus to users with paid registration

The maximum color scale has 512 members, but only members from index 0 to ColorDepth -1 are used in the chart.  

UltimaWaterfall.ColorScale(0)=&HFF0000

ChartType: Waterfall style

uw3D: 3D waterfall 
uw2D: 2D waterfall

ColorDepth: Translated color depth for data (default 64. The modification of this property is offered as a bonus to users with paid registration ). 

For 2D waterfall chart, the color of a data is ColorScale(data * ColorDepth /32768), where a negative number is treated as zero

For 3D waterfall chart, the height of a data is data*ColorDepth/32768, where a negative number is treated as zero

ScalingMethod: Color scaling method. The modification of this property is offered as a bonus to users with paid registration

Scaling	Data =0	Data=32767
uwRGB (default)	Red	Blue
uwBGR	Blue	Red
uwBW	Black	White
uwWB	White	Black
uwB	White	Blue
uwG	White	Green
uwR	White	Red

Data (index): Instead of using Chart an array-type variant, you can use the combination of Data and ChartNow. Use Data to enter single data point at a time, when all data points are entered, use ChartNow to paint a new frame .

Chart (variant): the variant has to be one-dimensional 16-bit short integer array. Only the positive number will be charted.

Here is a simple VC++ sample to set up a 16-bit short integer array PowerSpectrum:

VARIANT PowerSpectrum;
VariantInit(&PowerSpectrum);

SAFEARRAY * psa;
SAFEARRAYBOUND rgsabound[2];

rgsabound[0].lLbound=0;
rgsabound[0].cElements=256;

psa=SafeArrayCreate(VT_I2,1,rgsabound);
short * pshort=(short *)psa->pvData;

PowerSpectrum.vt=VT_I2+VT_ARRAY;
PowerSpectrum.parray=psa;

//fill the array of pshort[];

m_ultimawaterfall.Chart(PowerSpectrum);

Copy2Clipboard: Copy the current image to the clipboard. This method is offered as a bonus to users with paid registration

ChartNow: Use the data entered via Data (n) to paint a  new frame

Key: UltimaWaterfall displays an ad-line at the upper left corner of the screen unless it is registered. Once you register UltimaWaterfall, enter it via this property before invoking Chart method.

UltimaWaterfall .Key = "T1c2f345"     'The key to enable UltimaWaterfall, assuming T1c2f345 is your superkey

CrossHair (x, y) : reports the coordination of the mouse button movement
