Ordered Rendering Chart - Angular

Overview

This Angular example demonstrates dynamic render ordering using the SciChart Angular component. It shows how to programmatically control series and annotation draw order in a standalone component.

Technical Implementation

The chart is initialized through the [initChart] input binding. The example uses Angular's standalone component architecture with direct imports of ScichartAngularComponent.

Features and Capabilities

The implementation highlights Angular-specific patterns for working with SciChart's renderLayer and renderOrder APIs. The reactive nature of Angular components pairs well with SciChart's animation system.

The example follows Angular's change detection best practices by handling animations within SciChart's rendering system rather than Angular's zone.js.
