154This example demonstrates how to configure a multi-line chart title in SciChart.js using JavaScript. The chart is initialized with a custom title, set to "Multiline Chart Title", and styled with properties for font size, color, padding, and text alignment.
The chart is created by initializing a SciChartSurface, applying a custom theme, and setting up numeric axes with tailored axis titles via the axis.axisTitleStyle property (see NumericAxis Documentation). A FastLineRenderableSeries is added using an XyDataSeries sourced from randomly generated data, which illustrates efficient handling of dynamic data sets as detailed in the FastLineRenderableSeries documentation. Dynamic update functions are provided to modify the title text, alignment, position, and other style properties in real-time, following the approaches recommended in the Chart Styling - Chart Titles guide.
FastLineRenderableSeries ensures optimized performance for rendering live data.Although the provided source code is wrapped in a React component for demonstration purposes, the core implementation leverages JavaScript for initializing and updating the chart. Developers can integrate this approach into any JavaScript application by following practices from the Tutorial 01 - Including SciChart.js in an HTML Page using CDN. For further details on managing data series, refer to the Working with Data section. Overall, this example illustrates how to combine efficient rendering, responsive updates, and advanced styling to create a powerful, high-performance chart using SciChart.js in a JavaScript environment.
