71This example demonstrates how to create a high performance scatter chart within a React application using SciChart.js. It sets up a chart with two distinct scatter series that use custom point markers and animated transitions to enhance data visualization.
The chart is created asynchronously by invoking the SciChart.js API via a WASM context for optimized rendering performance. In this example, NumericAxis are added to a SciChartSurface and two XyScatterRenderableSeries are plotted using pointmarkers provided by EllipsePointMarker and TrianglePointMarker classes. The implementation follows asynchronous programming practices as described in Creating a SciChart React Component from the Ground Up, ensuring efficient initialization and resource management.
The chart offers several advanced features including custom point markers and smooth animations. Each scatter series employs SweepAnimation to create animated transitions for the data points, as detailed in the SweepAnimation Documentation. Interactive modifiers such as ZoomPanModifier, ZoomExtentsModifier, and MouseWheelZoomModifier enable intuitive chart navigation, with further insights provided by the ZoomPanModifier Documentation. Additionally, the use of different marker types is aligned with the practices outlined in Drawing PointMarkers on Series.
Integrating SciChart.js into a React application is streamlined by the use of the <SciChartReact/> component, which encapsulates and abstracts away the complexities of chart creation. The example demonstrates how to effectively manage component lifecycle and asynchronous operations, while leveraging the WASM context for enhanced performance.
