The Digital Band Series Type

Digital (or Step) High-Low Fill or Band Series are provided by the FastBandRenderableSeries type, when FastBandRenderableSeries.IsDigitalLine is true. This accepts data from a XyyDataSeries (X,Y1, Y2) and renders two lines with a polygon, which changes color depending on whether Y1>Y2 or vice versa.

Examples for the Digital Band Chart can be found in the SciChart WPF Examples Suite which can be downloaded from the SciChart Website or our SciChart.WPF.Examples Github Repository.

NOTE: For info about XyyDataSeries, as well as other DataSeries types in SciChart, see DataSeries API

To declare a FastBandRenderableSeries with Digital Lines, use the following code:

Declare a FastBandRenderableSeries in Xaml / Code Behind

Declare a FastBandRenderableSeries
Copy Code
<!-- where xmlns:s="http://schemas.abtsoftware.co.uk/scichart" -->
<s:SciChartSurface>

    <s:SciChartSurface.RenderableSeries>
        <s:FastBandRenderableSeries x:Name="rSeries" Stroke="GreenYellow"
                StrokeY1="Red" Fill="#33ADFF2F" FillY1="#33FF0000"
                StrokeThickness="1" AntiAliasing="True"
                IsDigitalLine="True"/>
</s:SciChartSurface.RenderableSeries>

    <!--  XAxis, YAxis omitted for brevity  -->
   
</s:SciChartSurface>

// Code Behind, e.g. in OnLoaded event handler, set the DataSeries
var xyyDataSeries = new XyyDataSeries<double, double>();

// FastBandRenderableSeries expects data in the format X,Y1, Y2
for (int i = 0; i < 100; i++)
{
       double y = Math.Sin(i*0.2);
       double y1 = 0.5* Math.Sin(i*0.05);
       xyyDataSeries.Append(i,y, y1);
}
rSeries.DataSeries = hlcDataSeries;

Declare a FastBandRenderableSeries in Pure Code

Declare a FastBandRenderableSeries
Copy Code
// Declare the scichartsurface
var sciChartSurface = new SciChartSurface();
// ...
// Declare and add a Error Bars Series
var bandSeries = new FastBandRenderableSeries()
{
    Stroke = Colors.GreenYellow,
    StrokeY1 = Colors.Red,
    Fill = Colors.FromArgb(0x33, 0xAD, 0xFF, 0x2D),
    FillY1 = Colors.FromArgb(0x33, 0xFF, 0x00, 0x00),
    AntiAliasing = true,
    StrokeThickness = 1,
    IsDigitalLine = true,
};
// Set some data
// FastBandRenderableSeries expects data in the format X,Y1, Y2
var xyyDataSeries = new XyyDataSeries<double, double>();
for (int i = 0; i < 100; i++)
{
       double y = Math.Sin(i*0.2);
       double y1 = 0.5* Math.Sin(i*0.05);
       xyyDataSeries.Append(i,y, y1);
}

errorBarsSeries.DataSeries = xyyDataSeries;

 

NOTE: You can also declare RenderableSeries using full MVVM (series ViewModels). Please see MVVM DataSeries / RenderableSeries API for more details.
