Hey There.

I am new to sciChart and i am in ahurry to develop a realtime ECG App which takes data from Bluetooth. Ignore the harware part. Can anyone kindly prove me source code of realtime ecg monitoring or realtime linechart.

Thanx in advance

i have been working on line charts and i need to show date as well as time on the axis( 21 june 08 05:30:PM like this).I’ve tried with date axis and numeric axis ,but it doesn’t helps.Do we have any suggestions or samples which could help me

This issue repros on Android 4.4 API 19, but not API 27. It happens with the example project (Multi-Pane Stock Charts). The issue is that on certain zoom levels, the x-axis labels are cut off (so instead of displaying 11 Mar, it just displays 11).

I have tried to override TradeChartAxisLabelFormatter with my custom implementation but saw the same issue, so the bug seems to be in the provider or somewhere else.

Please see screenshot: https://imgur.com/a/2RDC2MZ

I am developing an application which can receive the data from an ECG circuit, then transmit that data through Bluetooth into my phone application. My phone application would then display the ECG graph. I tried downloading the ECG demo example and it works find on its own. I am trying to incorporate that into my own project and see if it works. However I have been getting errors. Please help me out! Thank you!

hi

any plans to support xamarin forms in the future.

Hi ,

I am trying to change background color of scichart surface and also need to change color of grid bands and grid lines.

So far I am able change background color of scichart surface using scichartSurface.setBackgroundcolor API

But I am not able to find api can customize/ remove grid bands and grid lines.

Please find images attached for more details.

When I open activity with chart on real devices chart area for a moment has black color and theh succesfuly displayed chart data.
On emulators I do not see thes behavior.
How can I fix black screen?

我想实现一个功能，需要改变选中区域里面的几根蜡烛颜色为除了涨跌之外的其他颜色，整个功能该怎么实现？

I have a real-time chart that already drawn.
Is there a method that scrolls programmatically ?
If there is no such method, how i can do this ?

Hello, for my bottom graph on my screenshot below, is it possible to dynamically change the black background to red? Indeed, when the microphone saturates like on the screenshot below I want to change the black background to red for 2 seconds, so I need to do it programmatically.

https://i.ibb.co/7XCLDwf/sature.png

I init my bottom graph like this :

 @Override
    public void initGraph(Context context) {
        Log.d(TAG, "initGraphs");
        SciChartSurface audioStreamSciChart = new SciChartSurface(context);
        mAudiostream.addView(audioStreamSciChart);
        xAxis = new NumericAxis(context);
        xAxis.setVisibleRange(new DoubleRange(startAudioStreamRange, endAudioStreamRange));
        xAxis.setDrawLabels(false);
        xAxis.setDrawMinorTicks(false);
        xAxis.setDrawMajorBands(false);
        xAxis.setDrawMinorGridLines(false);
        audioStreamSciChart.getXAxes().add(xAxis);

        NumericAxis yAxis = new NumericAxis(context);
        yAxis.setVisibleRange(new DoubleRange(-1.0, 1.0));
        yAxis.setDrawLabels(true);
        yAxis.setDrawMinorTicks(false);
        yAxis.setDrawMajorBands(false);
        yAxis.setDrawMinorGridLines(false);
        yAxis.setAxisAlignment(AxisAlignment.Left);

        audioStreamSciChart.getYAxes().add(yAxis);

        float lineThickness = SciChartExtensionsKt.dip(context, 1.0F);

        FastLineRenderableSeries f = new FastLineRenderableSeries();
        f.setDataSeries(scichartTools.getAudioDS());
        f.setStrokeStyle(new SolidPenStyle(ColorUtil.Grey, true, lineThickness, null));
        audioStreamSciChart.getRenderableSeries().add(f);
        scichartLayout = mAudiostream.getChildAt(0);
    }

I can keep a reference of my FastLineRenderableSeries to do it but i didn’t find any method to change his backgroud color.
Can i ?

Thanks,
Wavely

Hi,

I would like to display all the hours of the day in X axis e.g 01 to 24 and I haven’t been able to achieve it yet, I tried use date delta but I couldn’t figure out how it really works, could you please share a code snippet or some example.

Thanks

I am building a real-time graph with CategoryDate X Axis and Numeric Y Axis. I found it hard to understand the Annotation API’s regarding the X and Y positions.

Q1:
Looking at AnnotationsAreEasyFragment, it draw a Horizontal line of (seemingly) full width. it declares

sciChartBuilder.newHorizontalLineAnnotation()
    .withPosition(7d, 2.8d)
    .withStroke(2, ColorUtil.Orange)
    .build()

i can under Y = 2.8d, but what is the X=7d for? and in the next Horizontal line which is short, it declares .withPosition(5d, 3.2d)?? X=5d and X=7d gives such a big difference.

Q2:
Since i am using CategoryDateAxis, referring to InteractionWithAnnotationsFragment to draw a vertical line at a specific date/time, there is a short line vertical line on 3rd Dec with the code

sciChartBuilder.newVerticalLineAnnotation()
    .withX1(20).withY1(35d).withY2(33d)
    ...

Since its a date axis, i would expect it to accept a Date.class (or long in millis) instead of .withX1(20). It doesnt even make sense! How exactly do i create full height vertical line at a specific date/time?

We have a sciChart surface in a fragment that has a scrollable view. We enabled tooltips using custom cursor modifier on the sci chart to show the values as the selection (touching a point in the chart object).

When we are moving the selection on x-axis tooltip sometimes it works fine and disappears when the selection is taken out. But sometimes it get freezed. At the same time, if we touch and move the selection in a vertical axis, tooltip box gets stuck and does not disappear even when the selection is taken out.

Tried so far:
We tried to replicate the issue in landscape mode and it works fine.
If we make the chart object to the whole page view, tool tips appears and disappears as expected.
But when the same used in portrait mode as a part of fragment (50% of screen) , problem arises

Steps to reproduce:
Have a chart object in a scrollable view.
Make sure the chart object doesnot appear on the fully screen without scrolling.
Now scroll to see the chart object.
Try to see the tooltip and move the selection in vertical axis.

Hi,

I have a list of 12 items, but at the start I only want to see the last 6 items on the chart (stacked column chart). I want to be able to scroll / drag to reveal the first part of the list. I use the index of the list for the x-axis, so the list has indexes with range from [0, 11]

I’m having some weird behaviour implementing this.
When the data is loaded, i see the complete bars:

but when I start to scroll, i’m never able to reveal the complete bars anymore:
![Screenshot 2020-09-18 at 11.04.40.png][2]
![Screenshot 2020-09-18 at 11.04.59.png][3]

When i start scrolling to the end (although the chart is already at the end), the UI jumps and only shows half a bar. Also when i scroll to the beginning, it only shows half a bar.

How can I make sure I always see the complete bars?

This is the code, specific to the x axis & the scrolling:

val xAxis = sciChartBuilder.newNumericAxis()
            .withDrawMajorBands(false)
            .withDrawMajorGridLines(false)
            .withDrawMinorGridLines(false)
            .withDrawMinorTicks(false)
            .withMajorDelta(1.0)
            .withMinorDelta(0.2)
            .withAutoTicks(false)
            .withVisibleRange(5.5, 11.5)
            .build()

using half values for the range seems to be the only way I can see the full bars. Once I start scrolling I only see half bars at the start & end

val surfaceChartModifiers: ChartModifierCollection = chart.chartModifiers
val dragModifier = XAxisDragModifier()
dragModifier.dragMode = AxisDragModifierBase.AxisDragMode.Pan
surfaceChartModifiers.add(dragModifier)

val zoomPanModifier = ZoomPanModifier()
zoomPanModifier.clipModeX = ClipMode.ClipAtExtents
zoomPanModifier.direction = Direction2D.XDirection
zoomPanModifier.zoomExtentsY = false
surfaceChartModifiers.add(zoomPanModifier)

I set a rolloverModifier to a CandlestickSeries, but I can not find a API to hide RolloverMarker,I only find a article about WPF(https://www.scichart.com/documentation/v5.x/webframe.html#RolloverModifier.html)， how could I hide RolloverMarker or change the style of RolloverMarker in Android?

I have some complex data & am showing each dataset as a different colour, but I would like to be able to customise the legends.

I am interested in having 2 legends, one with each data set, showing the colour, and preferably, limited to a set number with the option to scroll, and the other showing that solid lines are the left Y axis, and the dashed lines are the right Y axis.

My question is, is there a way to apply a custom skin to the Legend & is there a way to show dashed lines instead of just a big coloured square in the legend?

Hello

I was wondering if it would be possible to create a simple clean looking chart like described in the attached image. I am looking for a “SuccessRateChart” that has some similarity to the PieChart but does not use the whole circle to describe its content. I would also need a way to adjust the visible radius of the Pie. In means of information visualization you often hear the term “doughnut chart”…

On way could be to draw some circle stacked over the chart itself, but there should be a better solution.

Would love to hear from you,

Kind regards,
Stephan

Hi
Is there a way to just change the values of the pie segments so it get updated on the donut chart.
If I remove and add the pie segments again it works, is this the correct way?

Also I can’t find any documentation around the donut for android/xamarin

regards
Per

Hello,

I would try out the examples with my trial but I got this error:

error: package io.reactivex does not exist import
io.reactivex.Observable;

I hope you can help me. Thank you.

PS.: I did everything like in the Tutorial

Hi, from the attached screenshot, we can see that the axis marker is somehow overlapped the chart content. I would like to ask how to resize the annotation so that we can fix this issue? thanks.

I was wondering about the possibilities to show markers. I dug a while in the examples and played with default interactions, which use dragging to update the position of the marker.

On mobile devices this conflicts a little with the pan interaction to move the chart. I saw there’s also the possibility to pan using the axes area. There’s also the possibility to just tap on the chart, which doesn’t conflict with other interactions, to show a marker, but I couldn’t find how to do this. At least there doesn’t seem to be built in support for it? How should this be done?

Additionally I would like once a marker appears to either be able to update only by tapping again at other place on the chart (simple solution) or temporarily disabling the panning such that this gesture only moves the marker and not the chart (preferred, but probably less simple solution). So tapping on the chart would enter “marker mode” which disables zooming and panning and some other gesture – e.g. using an external button on the chart, would leave “marker mode” and enter zoom/pan mode again.

Any ideas how to achieve this? Thanks in advance!

P.S. I’m also using a real time chart, though this probably doesn’t make a difference concerning this.

I am extending a PieSegmentLabelFormatterBase to format the segment label of a piechart. however I cannot find any information regarding how I can change its size. So my question is How can I change the font size of piechart labels?

When setting yAxis to have auto range enabled or when manually calling chartSurface.zoomExtents() after adding new data to chart, the top point are cropped (not shown in the chart). I have attached an image that shows this phenomenon (note: bottom part of the chart is cropped out of the image).

Below is full code of an Activity that reproduces the problem. I also updated the attached image that shows the result of the following code. As you can see both red points with y value of 1.1f are cropped out of the chart.

class MainActivity : AppCompatActivity()
{
    private val chartBuilder by lazy { SciChartBuilder.instance() }
    private val chartSurface by lazy { createChartSurface() }

    override fun onCreate(savedInstanceState: Bundle?)
    {
        super.onCreate(savedInstanceState)

        SciChartBuilder.init(this)
        setContentView(R.layout.activity_main)

        val background = findViewById<ViewGroup>(R.id.background)
        background.addView(chartSurface)

        addPoints()
    }

    private fun createChartSurface(): SciChartSurface
    {
        val surface = SciChartSurface(this)

        val xAxis = chartBuilder.newNumericAxis()
            .withAxisTitle("X Axis title")
            .withVisibleRange(0.0, 1.0)
            .withAutoRangeMode(AutoRange.Always)
            .build()

        val yAxis = chartBuilder.newNumericAxis()
            .withAxisTitle("Y Axis title")
            .withVisibleRange(0.0, 1.0)
            .withAutoRangeMode(AutoRange.Always)
            .build()

        Collections.addAll(surface.xAxes, xAxis)
        Collections.addAll(surface.yAxes, yAxis)

        surface.renderableSeries.add(createSeries(Color.RED))
        surface.renderableSeries.add(createSeries(Color.BLUE))

        return surface
    }

    private fun createSeries(color: Int): FastLineRenderableSeries
    {
        val lineData = chartBuilder.newXyDataSeries(Long::class.javaObjectType, Float::class.javaObjectType)
            .withSeriesName("series")
            .build()

        return chartBuilder.newLineSeries()
            .withDataSeries(lineData)
            .withIsVisible(true)
            .withStrokeStyle(color, 2f, true)
            .build()
    }

    private fun addPoints()
    {
        val xValues = LongValues(longArrayOf(0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5))

        @Suppress("UNCHECKED_CAST")
        var lineData = chartSurface.renderableSeries[0].dataSeries as XyDataSeries<Long, Float>
        lineData.append(xValues, FloatValues(floatArrayOf(0.9f, 1f, 1.1f, 0.9f, 1.1f, 1f)))

        @Suppress("UNCHECKED_CAST")
        lineData = chartSurface.renderableSeries[1].dataSeries as XyDataSeries<Long, Float>
        lineData.append(xValues, FloatValues(floatArrayOf(0f, 0f, 0f, 0f, 0f, 0f)))
    }
}

Hi,

I just downloaded SciChart for Android. Trying to get the Example to work.

I’ve put my trial key in SciChartApp.java and tried to run.

Here are the errors (screen shot attached).

Thank you,
