SciChart® the market leader in Fast WPF Charts, WPF 3D Charts, iOS Chart, Android Chart and JavaScript Chart Components
Please note! These examples are new to SciChart iOS v4 release! SciChart’s OpenGL ES and Metal iOS and Metal macOS Chart library ships with hundred of Objective-C and Swift iOS&macOS Chart Examples which you can browse, play with and view the source-code. All of this is possible with the new and improved SciChart iOS Examples Suite and demo application for Mac, which ships as part of the SciChart SDK.
Demonstrates the speed and power of SciChart’s iOS Charts when hundreds of series are added to the chart. High-performance is very important for charts used in Trading, Medical and Scientific applications.
With the help of SCIFastLineRenderableSeries and ISCIRange that adds animation by changing axis’ visible range it shows how in realtime visible range of Y axis is changing and triggers redraw of line series.
The Swift and Objective-C source code for the iOS and macOS Chart Series Performance Demo example is included below (Scroll down!).
Did you know that we have the source code for all our example available for free on Github?
Clone the SciChart.iOS.Examples from Github.
Also the SciChart iOS and Scichart macOS Trials contain the full source for the examples (link below).
