209This React example demonstrates an interactive Polar Chart with toggleable modifiers using SciChart's React wrapper. The component provides a UI panel to enable/disable different chart interactions while displaying active modifier instructions.
The chart is wrapped in the SciChartReact component with the drawExample initialization function. React state manages the active modifiers and detects conflicts between incompatible interactions. The left panel contains checkboxes for each modifier type, styled with Material-UI components. The implementation uses the useState hook to track modifier states and handle toggle events.
The example showcases dynamic modifier management with real-time feedback. When users toggle modifiers, the central annotation updates with usage instructions. Conflict detection warns users about incompatible modifier combinations. The responsive layout maintains chart visibility across screen sizes.
This demonstrates React best practices including component composition, state management, and clean integration with SciChart's API. The example can be extended by adding custom modifier configurations or integrating with larger data management systems.
