I’m trying to adapt the real time with cursors sample to my application, and I am getting the errors:

A first chance exception of type ‘System.InvalidOperationException’ occurred in Abt.Controls.SciChart.Wpf.2.2.dll
SciChartSurface didn’t render, because an exception was thrown:
Message: Could not draw an annotation of type Abt.Controls.SciChart.Visuals.Annotations.CustomAnnotation. YAxis with Id == DefaultAxisId doesn’t exist. Please ensure that the YAxisId property is set to a valid value.

Can you look at my XAML and tell me what I have wrong? I’m sure it something simple, but I can’t seem to figure it out.

I am very impressed with your product and after having a false start with Visiblox components I am really excited to be using your tool. It’s easy to use, works as advertised with plenty of samples to get almost everything up and running in no time what so ever.

Thanks,
Doug

Hi Doug,

Thanks for the comprehensive code sample! Ok – the error message alone tells me the AxisId property on the Annotation is not matching an axis id on your axis collection.

By default all Axes have an Id =’DefaultAxisId’ and all Annotations have an XAxisId and YAxisId=’DefaultAxisId’

It looks to me like you’ve customised the Ids of all the axes (e.g. no axis remains with ‘DefaultAxisId’) but have not customised the YAxisId and XAxisId of the annotations.

Two solutions. Either leave one pair of axes as default (do not specify an ID for them) or, set Ids on all your annotations.

Let me know if this helps!

Andrew

    I just got your email after finding another resolution. I added an explicit This gave the control an axis with a default y axis id, and allowed it to continue on process the remaining axes. My experiance with Visiblox was not one I'd care to repeat, but the more I work with your product the more I like it. It's quick, and incredibly easy to add interesting functionality too. It's saved days if not weeks off my current project. Thanks again.

    Thank you Doug I appreciate your frank feedback. That's what we want to do - add value by saving time & money. I fear we are not where we want to be, not by a long way, but the encouragement we receive from people such as yourselves means a lot :) Glad you got it working in the end. Ideally it should not throw in this case but should gracefully fail. If you can suggest a way around I'd hear it. Maybe we should specify an AxisId of 'NONE' or null = do not show. Best regards, Andrew
