SciChart® the market leader in Fast WPF Charts, WPF 3D Charts, iOS Chart, Android Chart and JavaScript Chart Components

// Android Chart Examples

SciChart Android ships with ~90 Android Chart Examples which you can browse, play with, view the source-code and even export each SciChart Android Chart Example to a stand-alone Android Studio project. All of this is possible with the new and improved SciChart Android Examples Suite, which ships as part of our Android Charts SDK.

// Android Chart Series Selection

Demonstrates the use of the SeriesSelectionModifier, which hooks into the ChartModifier API to select series when you tap on it.

Tip!

The selected series is styled via the setSelectedSeriesStyle() method of SeriesSelectionModifier. A blanket style applied to any series which is selected. Also you can use the setSelectedSeriesStyle() on any RenderableSeries to achieve the same effect on an individual series level.
