Getting visual feedback
Sonar offers some very interesting and modern visual components to help the developer or manager understand the progress and evolution of the code base over time:
- Motion Chart plugin
- Timeline plugin
You can find the plugins in the Update Center under the Reporting/Visualization section. Install them and do not forget do restart the Sonar server after the installation. Finally, run a new analysis of a project and launch your browser.

You can find more information about the component at Google Code (http://code.google.com/intl/el-GR/apis/chart/interactive/docs/gallery/annotatedtimeline.html ...
