Questions

Hi guys,

Is it possible to capture the tap event when we tap on a point marker or a data point? I can see there’s a DataPointSelectionModifier for WPF, but there’s nothing for iOS. Our goal is to show a popup (tooltip) on the point marker when the user taps on it.

Thanks,

i want to insert 500 data on the left of chart.
then, it freezes slightly.
so, i want to present indicator.
how can i listen to start and end of drawing?

Hello, I’m trailing your library right now. I would like to be able to move the graph around as well as a cursor on the graph. So I enabled both SCIZoomPanModifier and SCICursorModifier. But since both use one finger panning, the result wasn’t that good. Do you have any guidance for solving the conflict and letting them working together? I’m thinking to do it in the following way: if the touch location is within certain pixel range of the cursor, panning action will move the cursor, otherwise it moves the graph. Is it possible? Thanks

Hello, I’m trailing your library right now. I’m wondering how to change the background color of the legend box. The document page for LegendModifier shows coming soon. I don’t see such option in LegendModifier definition in Xcode either. Thanks

Andrew required swift code so I attach the code.
Please answer my question again.

Andrew answered second question, but it didn’t work.
There is no drawAxisBands.

registerVisibleRangeChangedCallback is not enough for me.
I want an active stop function like this.
surface.stopScroll()….

yAxis.textFormatting = “%f”
First image file is the result of this code.

yAxis.textFormatting = “0.00000000”
Second image file is the result of this code.

First code doesn’t work, even it is just a sample code in document.
Second code works, but I want flexible trailing zeros.
How can I do?

I wanna make chart area background color white.
And I implemented it like below.

surface.xAxes.defaultAxis()?.style.gridBandBrush.color = .white
surface.yAxes.defaultAxis()?.style.gridBandBrush.color = .white

Then, some part became white, but not whole area.
I wanna remove those black areas, so I used theme manager, and it worked.

SCIThemeManager.applyTheme(toThemeable: surface, withThemeKey: “SciChart_Bright_Spark”)
surface.xAxes.defaultAxis()?.style.gridBandBrush.color = .white
surface.yAxes.defaultAxis()?.style.gridBandBrush.color = .white

But, this is not reasonable. I use that theme, only to change background color.
Is there another way to acheive white background?

When scrolling, some weird bold lines appear and disappear.
You can see it on image files attached.
How can i fix it?

How would I go about doing this in swift?

Have recently converted to xcode 10 and swift 4.2.

Am now receiving this error message on build.

SciChart.framework/SciChart
Reason: no suitable image found. Did find:
/usr/lib/libstdc++.6.dylib: mach-o, but not built for iOS simulator

Any ideas?

Hi Sir/Madam,
I have created a Mountain Series with gradient fill. below is part of my code:

-(SCIRenderableSeriesBase *)getTimeSharePlot:(SCIXyDataSeries*)xySeries{
    SCIFastMountainRenderableSeries * rSeries = [SCIFastMountainRenderableSeries new];
    rSeries.dataSeries = xySeries;
    rSeries.strokeStyle = [[SCISolidPenStyle alloc] initWithColor:[UIColor colorWithRed:0 green:0 blue:0 alpha:1] withThickness:1];
    rSeries.areaStyle = [[SCILinearGradientBrushStyle alloc] initWithColorStart:[UIColor colorWithRed:32/255.0 green:56/255.0 blue:124/255.0 alpha:1.0] finish:[UIColor whiteColor] direction:SCILinearGradientDirection_Vertical];

    return rSeries;
}

When i run the test, the chart is just filling with solid color
Would you please help?
BR,
Tommy

Hi

I am developing a Xamarin iOS application and I’m using a SCIPieChartSurface. I can create the chart and set its values, but it is not possible to auto-update the donut with new data.
I am trying to update the value by doing:

myDonut.MyPieSegment.Value = newValue;

But nothing happends…

I’m trying to make a chart with a “toggle function”.

The “toggle function” what i wanted to make is this.

1. enter to UIViewController which Chart is in it
2. before singleTap on a chart, a chart has zoomPanModifier, XAxisDragModifier,, etc
3. after make singleTap on the chart, that chart has only CursorModifier.
4. CursorModifier’s UI stays on chart without disappearing and i can move crossed line to specific point i want (just like what CursorModifier originally does)
5. another single tap on chart would make a chart to have all other modifiers but CursorModifer.

–

What I have made successfully was 1,2,3,5 . not 4.

The way i was going to solve this problem was make fake touch event on Chart view and
snatch UIGestureRecognizer Event and let ChartView think they’re being touched till I give stop signal

But I heard that there is no more way to pass fake touch to UIView.

So I’m feeling difficulty on this problem…..

is there any easy way to solve this problem?

–

TL;DR;

I WANT TO MAKE CURSORMODIFIER’ UI STAYS ON A CHART!

I heard it was a bug in the API for Android a month ago, is this similar? Or am I doing something wrong?
Thanks in advance!

Hi,
Im tryin to create an effect where I have a static point on the Y Axis and I want to perform zoom in, so what I did is to increase or decrease the Max visible range, what I’m left with is the rubber band effect where my static point isn’t static anymore because the point in “Stretching” in the direction I’m zooming.

I have just learned how to use sci-chart framework with tutorials.
And I tried to add values from bluetooth as realtime chart as shown in tutorials.
I have finished receiving data from a Bluetooth connection.
However, using scichart to represent this data in real time is hard to solve by looking at the tutorial alone.
Does anyone have any idea how to use real-time tutorials to teach you how to represent your own data, not the example sine graph?

The code below is what I tried and is wrong.

Hi,
we are using an UICollectionView to display different kinds of views in our application, including charts created with SciChart. We noted that every time a cell with a SciChart is loaded, some memory is allocated and not freed when the cell disappears, which leads to a massive memory leak and eventually crashes the application.
Is there a way to free SciChart resources on demand? Or maybe you suggest another solution to solve this issue?
Regards,
Anna

Hello,

I am unable to install SciChart pod.
The podfile has multiple pods with multiple platforms and source.
I get the error saying ” [!] Unable to find a specification for ‘SciChart’.”
Please advice..

use_frameworks!

pod 'UICircularProgressRing'
pod 'Alamofire'

platform :ios, '8.0'
source 'https://github.com/CocoaPods/Specs.git'

pod 'SideMenu'

Hi,
I am creating iOS aplication which displays charts based on stocks data.
I want to create box annotations to show when market is open or closed.
I am using CategoryDateTimeAxis to display data but when i add AnnotationCollection with BoxAnnotations to Surface i can not see the annotations.

This is my code for creating box Annotation:

    let pre = SCIBoxAnnotation()
    pre.coordinateMode = .relative
    pre.x1 = SCIGeneric(setDate(date, 4, 0, 0)!)
    pre.x2 = SCIGeneric(setDate(date, 9, 30, 0)!)
    pre.y1 = SCIGeneric(max )
    pre.y2 = SCIGeneric(0)
    pre.isEditable = false
    pre.style.fillBrush = SCISolidBrushStyle(color: #colorLiteral(red: 0.01680417731, green: 0.1983509958, blue: 1, alpha: 0.13))
    pre.style.borderPen = SCISolidPenStyle(color: .clear, withThickness: 0)

I’ve downloaded yesterday showcase example from your github: https://github.com/ABTSoftware/SciChart.iOS.Examples

After providing license key other samples work ok except Audio Analyzer (and the last sales dashboard – shows blank screen).

Problems is somewhere with SpectrogramSurfaceController ( If I commend it out wave plot and fft plot works)

Xcode shows there is some bad memory access at:
[SCIFastUniformHeatMapRenderableSeries internalDrawWithContext:WithData:]
cblas_sscal

Tested using:
iPhone 5SE
iOS 11.2.5
Xcode 9.2

I would like to restrict the chart to cap at the extents while panning, but chart stretches at the extents. I could able to set clip mode for X axis in SCIZoomPanModifier, same way I would like to set clip mode Y axis but I couldn’t.

Please help me to restrict my chart to not move after chart data extents.

Thanks,
Vadivel Muniswamy.

When I embed my view controller in a navigation controller the top of the chart is hidden behind the navigation bar. So I went to the storyboard and found the view controller attributes section called “extend edges” and turned off the option called “under top bars”. This fixes the top of the chart. Now the bottom of the chart drops off the bottom of the screen. The x-axis is completely missing. Does SciChart support this case?
