iOS Chart Examples - 60 Objective-C and Swift iOS Chart Examples in a 3 minute video

SciChart’s OpenGLES iOS Chart library ships with ~60 Objective-C and Swift 4 iOS Chart Examples which you can browse, play with, view the source-code and even export each iOS Objective-C / Swift Chart Example to a stand-alone XCode project. All of this is possible with the new and improved SciChart iOS Examples Suite, which ships as part of the SciChart iOS SDK.

// iOS Chart Theme Manager

In SciChart you can apply one of our 8 in-built themes to an iOS Chart, or even create your own! This is possible using the ThemeManager or ThemeProvider API.

Calling the SCIChartSurface.applyThemeProvider function with a string key to load one of our predefined themes, changes the look and feel of the chart.

For more info, see the source code for the example below.

iOS Chart Theme Manager

// Source Code

The Swift 4 and Objective-C source code for the iOS Chart Theme Manager example is included below (Scroll down!).

Did you know you can also view the source code from one of the following sources as well?

  1. Clone the SciChart.iOS.Examples from Github.
  2. Or, view source and export each example to an XCode project from the Obj-C version of the SciChart iOS Examples app.
  3. Also the SciChart iOS Trial contains the full source for the examples (link below).
