Bar chart selection/hover mouse interaction

Hi Ben,

Thanks for your inquiry.
You can use our DataPoint Selection modifier to select separate columns/data points. Please take a look at the corresponding documentation for more info:
https://www.scichart.com/documentation/win/current/webframe.html#DataPoint%20Selection.html

You can also find our “PointMarkers Selection” example useful. Here is a link:

The execution conditions of Chart Modifiers in SciChart are controlled by the ExecuteOn property.
I’ll discuss the possible options with our team and will get back to you.

Please let me know if you have any further questions.

With best regards,

Hi there,

Please find attached an example that demonstrates how to use SciChart API to achieve the desired behavior.

The example utilizes PointMetadata API to add Selectable and Hoverable state to data points and Palette Provider API to change Fill color of individual columns depending of the state of the underlying data point. Also, a simple custom Chart Modifier is used to implement state changing behavior on Mouse events and trigger a chart redraw when such change occurs.

Please let me know if you have any questions regarding the example or any SciChart APIs that are used.

Best Regards,
