The Developers version of QCChart2D, controlled by the QCLicense.lic.xml license file, will always display the "DEV. R2.N" string in the upper left corner. This is to prevent a developer from re-distributing the QCChart2D software as part of their application. That license file is designed to time out after 1-year, or the term of your subscription. The "DEV. R2.N" should not hinder your design and development of charting applications that use the QCChart2D software.
The Redistributable version of QCChart2D, also controlled by the QCLicense.lic.xml file, does not display the "DEV. R2.N" string and does not timeout, though it cannot be used in design mode. Instead this license file should only be used AFTER you have created the redistributable version of your applications EXE. When you redistribute your own application with our QCChart2DNet.DLL class library, you should include the redistributable version of the QCLicense.lic.xml file with it. As discussed in the manual, your installation program should install the QCLicense.lic.xml in the target computers system directory, either Windows\System or Windows\System32. You can also install it in a directory that you specify if you use the ChartView.SetLicensePath method.
You find the redistributable version of the QCLicense.lic.xml license file in the Quinn-Curtis root directory after you install the Redistributable version of the software. Copy this file somewhere safe, then reinstall the developers version to place the developers version of the license file back in the proper Windows system directory.
