175};This example integrates a Polar Scatter Chart into a React application using scichart-react. It asynchronously initializes the chart via drawExample, rendering multiple scatter series on radial and angular axes.
Within the <SciChartReact> component, drawExample calls SciChartPolarSurface.create to set up the chart surface and WebAssembly context. Axes are configured with PolarNumericAxis, specifying EPolarAxisMode.Radial and EPolarAxisMode.Angular, start angles, ranges, and styling. Scatter series are added using PolarXyScatterRenderableSeries and animated via SweepAnimation.
React integration includes:
PolarLegendModifier overriding getLegendItemHTML to render SVG markersPolarPanModifier, PolarZoomExtentsModifier, PolarMouseWheelZoomModifierUse scichart-react to manage the chart lifecycle. Provide cleanup by returning a destructor that calls sciChartSurface.delete(). Follow best practices for async initialization in React components and leverage documented hooks in scichart-react GitHub.
