SciChart® the market leader in Fast WPF Charts, WPF 3D Charts, iOS Chart, Android Chart and JavaScript Chart Components
Based on the example in https://www.scichart.com/documentation/android/v1.x/webframe.html#Axis%20Types.html
IAxis axis = new CategoryDateAxis(getActivity());
axis.setAxisAlignment(AxisAlignment.Right);
axis.setAutoRange(AutoRange.Once);
axis.setGrowBy(new DoubleRange(0.1d, 0.1d));
axis.setVisibleRange(new DateRange(dateMin, dateMax));
It will crash at setVisibleRange with
java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException: Expected instance of DoubleRange

…
What would be the proper way to set a date range?
Hi there,
Thank you for pointing this out to us! The article wasn’t updated in time and contains misleading information about CategoryDateAxis. We are going to fix it ASAP.
As to your question, CategoryDateAxis expects a DoubleRange as the VisibleRange. It draws things based on data indexes, not actual values. So setting the VisibleRange should look like that:
IAxis xAxis = new CategoryDateAxis(getActivity());
// set VisibleRange to [min data index, max data index]
double dataIndex1 = 10d, dataIndex2 = 100d;
DoubleRange visibleRange = new DoubleRange(dataIndex1, dataIndex2);
// apply the visibleRange
xAxis.setVisibleRange(visibleRange);
Concerning converting Dates to Indexes (described in the Convert Pixels to Chart Coordinates article). Please bear in mind that it requires a chart being measured (rendered) first.
Hope this helps!
Best regards,
Yuriy
