WPF Chart Realtime Ghosted Traces

WPF Chart - Examples

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.

Download the SDK

This example shows persistence of old traces giving a ‘ghosted’ effect. As new series are drawn older series are made increasingly transparent until they become invisible.

Tip!

This example looks a lot better using the new HighQualityRenderSurface due to its superior handling of transparency. For maximum performance use the Visual Xccelerator Engine.
