Hello Ganesh Kumar,

I understand that you are facing challenges with displaying charts in the Aspose.Cells editor for your .XLS files in version 25.9. While Aspose.Cells offers a variety of features, there are inherent limitations when it comes to rendering certain elements, such as charts and embedded images, particularly in older file formats like .XLS.

Here are some key points to consider:

  1. Chart Support: The Aspose.Cells editor may not fully support all chart types or features from the original Excel files, especially in the .XLS format. Complex charts or those utilizing unsupported features may not render as expected.

  2. Embedded Images: Similar to charts, embedded images may not display correctly due to compatibility issues with the .XLS format.

  3. Upgrade Consideration: If feasible, consider converting your .XLS files to the newer .XLSX format. This format generally offers improved support for features in Aspose.Cells, which may enhance the rendering of charts and images.

  4. Rendering Approach: For .XLS files, consider using a render-stage approach to generate images of the charts instead of relying on direct rendering within the editor. This can help ensure that the visual representation of your data is preserved.

If you require further assistance or specific code examples, please feel free to reach out.

Thank you,
