I crashed when I was quick to show and hide the content of the chart

I crashed when I was quick to show and hide the content of the chart。

The source code is similar to the following：

public void show(){
if(!surface.getRenderableSeries().contains(lineUpSeries)) {
Collections.addAll(surface.getRenderableSeries(), lineUpSeries);
Collections.addAll(surface.getRenderableSeries(), lineDownSeries);
Collections.addAll(surface.getRenderableSeries(), line20Series);
Collections.addAll(surface.getAnnotations(), upTextMarker);
Collections.addAll(surface.getAnnotations(), downTextMarker);
Collections.addAll(surface.getAnnotations(), ma20TextMarker);
Collections.addAll(surface.getAnnotations(), upAxisMarker);
Collections.addAll(surface.getAnnotations(), downAxisMarker);
Collections.addAll(surface.getAnnotations(), ma20AxisMarker);
}
}
public void hide(){
if(surface.getRenderableSeries().contains(lineUpSeries)) {
surface.getRenderableSeries().remove(lineUpSeries);
surface.getRenderableSeries().remove(lineDownSeries);
surface.getRenderableSeries().remove(line20Series);
surface.getAnnotations().remove(upTextMarker);
surface.getAnnotations().remove(downTextMarker);
surface.getAnnotations().remove(ma20TextMarker);
surface.getAnnotations().remove(upAxisMarker);
surface.getAnnotations().remove(downAxisMarker);
surface.getAnnotations().remove(ma20AxisMarker);
}
}

error log：

Hi Huang,

Thanks for your question. It is known issue which is caused by fact that ObservableCollection which is used as base class for annotation collection is not thread safe. There is a race condition when annotation collection changes at the same time when chart redraws itself on another thread. Usually to prevent this exception you just need to suspend updates of chart which is modified so chart won’t be redrawn while you add/remove annotations:

    public void hide(){
    // suspend surface during update of of renderable series and annotation collections
    UpdateSuspender.using(surface, new Runnable() {
        @Override
        public void run() {
            if(surface.getRenderableSeries().contains(lineUpSeries)) {
                surface.getRenderableSeries().remove(lineUpSeries);
                surface.getRenderableSeries().remove(lineDownSeries);
                surface.getRenderableSeries().remove(line20Series);
                surface.getAnnotations().remove(upTextMarker);
                surface.getAnnotations().remove(downTextMarker);
                surface.getAnnotations().remove(ma20TextMarker);
                surface.getAnnotations().remove(upAxisMarker);
                surface.getAnnotations().remove(downAxisMarker);
                surface.getAnnotations().remove(ma20AxisMarker);
            }
        }
    });
}

Can you try and let me know if this workaround fixes the exception?

Best regards,
Yura

I have another breakdown, as follows: java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException: Data has been changed to a DataSeries which is unsorted in the X-Direction. Unsorted data can have severe performance implications in SciChart. For maximum performance, please double-check that you are only inserting sorted data to SciChart. Alternatively, to disable this warning and allow unsorted data, please call dataSeries.setAcceptsUnsortedData(true). at com.scichart.charting.model.datadistributioncalculator.a.a(SourceFile:31) at com.scichart.charting.model.datadistributioncalculator.DefaultDataDistributionCalculator.a(SourceFile:148) at com.scichart.charting.model.datadistributioncalculator.DefaultDataDistributionCalculator.onInsertValues(SourceFile:86) at com.scichart.charting.model.dataSeries.XyDataSeries.insertRange(SourceFile:408)
