Creating your First SciChart Android App - Part 2

HI,

I’m trying to go through the “Your First App” tutorials

I’ve completed the first one:
“Creating your First SciChart Android App – Part 1”:
https://www.scichart.com/documentation/android/current/webframe.html#Creating%20your%20First%20SciChart%20Android%20App%20-%20Part%201.html

which seems fine.

I then go to
“Creating your First SciChart Android App – Part 2”:
https://www.scichart.com/documentation/android/current/webframe.html#Creating%20your%20First%20SciChart%20Android%20App%20-%20Part%202.html

Unfortunately, I don’t see the SciChart items in the Palette when I scroll down to the Custom section.

Could you point to how I can make SciChart available please?

Screen shots attached.

Thank you,
Ed

Hi Ed,

Well A ndroid Studio just provides a conviniet UI for manipulating XML layouts. However you can decrare SciChartSurface manually in your XML layout like this :

<?xml version="1.0" encoding="utf-8"?>
<LinearLayout xmlns:android="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res/android"
   android:layout_width="match_parent"
   android:layout_height="match_parent"
   android:orientation="vertical">

    <com.scichart.charting.visuals.SciChartSurface
       android:id="@+id/chart"
       android:layout_width="fill_parent"
       android:layout_height="fill_parent" />

</LinearLayout>

If you correctly referenced SciChart libraries in your project this should be enough to compile project without any errors.
