SciChart® the market leader in Fast WPF Charts, WPF 3D Charts, iOS Chart, Android Chart and JavaScript Chart Components
SciChart WPF ships with hundreds of WPF Chart Examples which you can browse, play with, view the source-code and even export each WPF Chart Example to a stand-alone Visual Studio solution. All of this is possible with the new and improved SciChart WPF Examples Suite, which ships as part of the SciChart WPF SDK.
Demonstrates mouse-dragging of SciChart: Overlays three series on a SciChartSurface and applies the ZoomPanModifier. This is a built-in ChartModifierBase derived class which adds the behavior of panning on mouse-drag. ChartModifiers can be added to the SciChartSurface via the SciChartSurface.ChartModifier property, or via a ModifierGroup
Interactivity Options
Change input button to start the pan operation, e.g. Left, Middle button (WPF Only) or Right Button
