I have a simple need to display a horizontal heatmap based on values along the x-axis. So if value on x-axis is 1, color shown on the heatmap should be orange, if the next value is 2, red color bar appears to next the previous orange etc. Something like this (see attached graphic also):

Heatmap: [=orange=red=green]
values along x-axis: [22.05, 24.00, 30.00 ]

So the code I am trying is as follows:

export async function renderHeatMap(element) 
{
    const { sciChartSurface, wasmContext } = await SciChartSurface.create(element);

    sciChartSurface.xAxes.add(new NumericAxis(wasmContext));
    sciChartSurface.yAxes.add(new NumericAxis(wasmContext));

    var heatMapData = zeroArray2D([1, 5]);
    heatMapData[0][0] = 22.05; //should appear as color1 in heatmap
    heatMapData[0][1] = 24.00; //...
    heatMapData[0][2] = 30.00; //should appear as color2 in heatmap
    heatMapData[0][3] = 26.75;
    heatMapData[0][4] = 30.00; //should appear as color3 in heatmap

    const heatmapDataSeries = new UniformHeatmapDataSeries(wasmContext, 0, 1, 0, 1, heatMapData);

    const heatmapSeries = new UniformHeatmapRenderableSeries(wasmContext, {
        dataSeries: heatmapDataSeries,
        colorMap: new HeatmapColorMap({
            minimum: 20, // min value in the zValues (data) to map to offset 0 in the colormap
            maximum: 30, // max value in the zValues (data) to map to offset 1 in the colormap
            gradientStops: [
                { offset: 0, color: "#00008B" },
                { offset: 0.3, color: "#7FFF00" },
                { offset: 0.7, color: "#FFFF00" },
                { offset: 1.0, color: "#FF0000" },
            ],
        }),
    });

    sciChartSurface.renderableSeries.add(heatmapSeries);
}

But this only displays an empty grid. I don’t see a heatmap. Anyone can point out what may be wrong? Not even the axis is showing up correctly.

Hi, we are using CategoryAxis to display stock data, however, as you can see in the image below, within the “same” candle or volume, divergent information is displayed.

am I doing something wrong?

I need help to make the SciChart surface grid to always look like squares instead of rectangles(like in the screenshot attached).
Does anyone have solved this yet ?

This question is related to this.

I still see a problem with memory accumulation and I just can’t cope with it. For clarity, I created a simple example with the simplest graph, two axes, one line series and 10,000 values in this graph.

When the page loads, no code is executed and there is only a button that creates one graph, adds it, waits 3 seconds and deletes it.

I use this button to test the speed and the fact of memory accumulation. For the simplest test, it is enough to simply create a certain number of times and wait for the graph to be deleted. After which it is clear that after some time the memory will not return to its previous values.
Example: after loading the page, memory consumption was about 30-40 MB, after creating and deleting 15 graphs (one by one), the memory was already 105 MB

Thus, with each graph, memory leaks.

Also, to test and search for memory leaks, I used the three snapshot technique:
1) created, for example, 2-3 graphics one by one
2) took a snapshot
3) created an even number of charts (for example, 10 or 25)
4) took a snapshot
5) created one or two more graphs
6) took a snapshot

7) I opened the 3rd Snapshot and looked at the result of the objects distributed between Snapshots 1 and 2. Every time I see the same exact values of 10 or 25 or multiples of them.

Can you please look at the code, at creation and deletion, repeat this test to understand where this memory is leaking from.

Thanks in advance for your answer. I hope the problem will be found.

Hi,

Gauges (linear and radial) are not part of scicharts components…
These controls are helpfull to do some dashboards

Is scichart can do that?
Examples exists?

circular samples
like https://apexcharts.com/javascript-chart-demos/radialbar-charts/
like https://nivo.rocks/radial-bar/
like https://antoniolago.github.io/react-gauge-component/
like https://codepen.io/naikus/pen/BzZoLL

linear samples
https://docs.anychart.com/Gauges/Linear_Gauge

Regards.

I am new to scichart javascript library and trying to run the provided examples locally. I was working on this example
https://www.scichart.com/documentation/js/current/The%20Candlestick%20Series%20type.html

I am able to run this example locally. now I want to add cursor snapping in it. An example would be tradingview candlestick charts. in those charts cursor snaps to nearest candles.
I am trying to achieve similar. I looked into the docs but couldn’t find the answer.

Thanks !

I’m a C# developer looking to evaluate working with SciChartJS for a possible future project.

I’ve created a .NET Blazor Project working with JavaScript Interop and I would like to extend the CustomChartModifier2D in TypeScript.

I’ve not used npm to install SciChart into the project, rather I’m using the CDN approach in my _Host.cshtml file.

<script src="https://cdn.jsdelivr.net/npm/[email protected]/index.min.js" crossorigin="anonymous"></script>

I’ve been searching online for a SciChartJS TypeScript definition file so that I can leverage TS Strongly Typed system in my test project.

Is there one? Or do I need to build my own, or even is there an already made example of extending SciChart with TypeScript somewhere I’ve missed?

Thank you

How to display data labels vertically and support Chinese，As shown in Fig

TextAnnotation,Let me use this method, I want to make all the text in the text attribute display vertically, and find that there is no such function, NativeTextAnnotation has this function but does not support Chinese.I hope you can see that you can give a reply, thank you![enter image description here][1]

This demo was very helpful in working export out. I have a followup question. For a specific user request, I’m currently attempting something along these lines (current state; there’s some spaghetti-against-the-wall method going on at the moment):

const previousTheme = surface.themeProvider;

    const exportTheme = {
        ...previousTheme,
        sciChartBackground:"Transparent",
        gridBackgroundBrush:"Transparent",
        axisBandsFill: "Transparent"
    }

    surface.applyTheme(exportTheme);
    surface.background = "Transparent";

    new Promise(r => setTimeout(r, 1000)).then(() => {
        try {
            const node = document.getElementById('scichart-stuff');
            if (!node)
                return;
            domtoimage
                .toPng(node )
                .then(function (blob) {
                    saveAs(blob, 'plot.png');
                })
                .catch(function (error) {
                    console.error('Problem exporting/saving image of plot', error);
                });
        } finally {
            surface.applyTheme(previousTheme);
        }
    })

I am able to see the update (after adding the delay) on the screen, but the export appears to be ignoring the values I’m setting. I’m wondering what I might be missing in terms of the interactions of these libraries.

I’m looking on https://demo.scichart.com/javascript-multi-pane-stock-charts-sync-technique
I have a q react application. Can I add/remove subcharts(indicator panes) dynamically?

Hello, how do I remove the shadow from tooltips, generated by the VerticalSliceModifier?

Thanks!

Good evening. Lately I’ve been troubleshooting a problem with page memory usage increasing. Over time, the memory grows exponentially and reaches several gigabytes. To explain the problem, we need to describe how we use charts:

On our website in real time, depending on our algorithm, the charts replace each other. The user constantly sees 4 charts, which are constantly replaced by others. Adding new charts occurs unnoticed by the user and only after the graph is fully loaded and drawn does it replace the previous one. That is, the user actually sees 4 charts, but there may be more on the page. After replacing the desired chart, the old one is deleted using surface.delete() and removing all dependencies.

At first, when creating a chart, I used the create() method. After a number of attempts to avoid memory accumulation and re-reading the documentation, I came to the conclusion that it is possible, since all graphs are created using create() – they have a common wasm and since there cannot be a situation in which all charts will be deleted (at least 4 are always present ), then wasm memory is not freed. Tell me if I’m right about this.

Afterwards, I decided to try to create charts using createSingle() with a reliable method, which now, since each graph has its own wasm, memory will be freed. Perhaps this was the case, but I can’t say for sure, because now after some time the page began to reload automatically with the appearance of an error, the screenshot of which I attached. This is most likely due to a wasm limitation on the page when using createSingle. Although it’s strange, when you delete the chart, the amount of wasm should decrease. And even with a limit of 16 copies, this should be enough. Please explain this error to me as well, perhaps the problem with rebooting can be somehow solved by you (I’m not sure that this should happen)

Thank you very much in advance for your answer. Have a good day!

The project is developed on SciChart JS.

The x axis is date time numeric and y axis is numeric.

There is a option for the user to select the x axis interval. The interval values are 5 Min, 10 Min, 15 Min, 30 Min, 1 Hour, 6 Hour, 12 Hour, Days, Weeks, Months & Years.

When the user the selects a interval in the select option, the x axis should be updated with the selected interval.

For Example, If the user selects the 5 Min in the select option, then the x axis interval should be 5 Min.

For 5 Min X Axis Interval

So let me know how to change the interval in the x axis (date time numeric) based on the selection.

Can I implement a feature in SciChart that allows me to pause and resume rendering activity on a SciChart renderable surface when a user clicks on the SciChart renderable surface?

Hi Folks,

Wanted to ensure I’m working in the right direction here. Requirement is to add inline series labels on the plot surface. It’s an awkward requirement at times, but it keeps coming up with because other providers do this sometimes.

I’ve been playing with the examples of using data labels ( https://github.com/ABTSoftware/SciChart.JS.Examples/blob/master/Examples/src/components/Examples/Charts2D/TooltipsAndHittest/UsingVerticalSliceModifier/index.tsx ).

This might work. It’s a little strange since I only need to show at most one label per series. So I use the data label provider I assume and have to manually space them along the index range.

The only alternative I’m aware of is the annotations api, which of course is quite robust and probably a little too fancy for this case.

Appreciate any thoughts on the approach here — thanks!

EDIT: Attached very contrived example. The idea is to supply a label to name the series inline (apparently a legend is not sufficient), but in a way that is reasonably useful visually (similar to the spacing capabilities in the data labels api). The text would be some piece of metadata that is derived from the series (or at least has a 1:1 relationship with the series).

Hi –

I could not find an example in the various examples your provide

I have several charts in different components

When a component is closed I want to ensure the chart is destroyed and there is not potential for memory leak

What is this best way of doing this?

Thanks

Hello,

I found an issue with very high memory usage by the application. after some tests I found the problem and moved it to a separate example(https://codepen.io/PodaRocheK/pen/PoVmzvP?editors=0011). Please check this code and observe the memory usage on this page. With prolonged use (after 10 minutes), it is clear that more and more memory is used. After hours, the memory used may already be more than several gigabytes. Tell me what the problem is, maybe I’m doing something wrong. Maybe I’m somehow storing old data incorrectly or adding it incorrectly.

This example is not a working example, it has been sped up in order to quickly identify the problem. In our example, an unnecessary data update will occur once every few seconds and after a night of inactivity, the entire page will die. Please tell me what the problem is.

Thank you!

Hi,

I am facing another issue with dataLabels in latest version of Scichart. I saw another question with similar is already posted and the fix is released.

Can you check this code.

I tried to reproduce the issue with the vue js example code, codesandbox. But the issues is behaving differently in example code, codesandbox, and my existing project.

codesandbox: https://codesandbox.io/s/scichart-error-6xc6jw?file=/src/index.ts
codesandbox:- Text in the bottom area are displayed and top area no labes are displayed.

I am attaching the vue js file also. Please check the file also, On the example no labels are displayed.

I am attaching the video of my project also, Here the labels are invisible sometimes, sometimes the labels are showing not properly. Video Link: https://drive.google.com/file/d/1vZ0lO5xdmN9VfFGXMaoTPfTgqRytrEAl/view?usp=sharing

When I’m using a BoxAnnotation, and it is selected, I can see that the borders are shown expanding past the chart area, on top of the axes.
Ideally they would have the same behaviour as the normal stroke, and keep constrained to the chart area.

Codepen showing the issue: https://codepen.io/jrfv/full/bGzqvoE

Am I missing some configuration to make this work?

Thanks!

Hello,

Can you show this example(https://codepen.io/PodaRocheK/pen/yLGxGEL?editors=0011) and tell me, why metadata labels are not displayed in some cases? May be you can tell me how to do it correctly? A have similar chart with a lot of datapoints and can’t understand why labels show only in some time(20s or > 1m after start the chart)

Thank you!

I am working on a proof of concept for our company to move some of our desktop apps to the web. We use SciChart WPF in our desktop apps so we are going with SciChart.JS for the web apps. Is it possible to stack the FastLineRenderableSeries in SciChart.JS like we do in WPF?

Edit: Found the answer just after I posted this question.

sciChartSurface.layoutManager.leftOuterAxesLayoutStrategy = new LeftAlignedOuterVerticallyStackedAxisLayoutStrategy();

I am using SciChartSurface.create() to create chart and it works well. However, I got the webGL memory issue randomly – WebGL memory issue. I am trying to apply a workaround to use SciChartSurface.createSinge() instead. The createSingle() function doesn’t work for me, the chart cannot be rendered.

const { sciChartSurface, wasmContext } = await SciChartSurface.createSinlge(`${chartId}-chart-root`, { theme: themeObj });

There is no error showing in the developer tool console. I have no idea what’s wrong.

Hello everyone. A similar question has already been asked just below the forum, but there is no answer. I have dynamically added diagrams. However, I am interested in the possibility of adding buttons for closing and collapsing diagrams directly to the chart panel. I need the option to close any selected chart. How can this be implemented and written? Thank you.

I’m using an example of RealtimeTickingStockCharts

https://github.com/ABTSoftware/SciChart.JS.Examples/tree/master/Examples/src/components/Examples/Charts2D/CreateStockCharts/RealtimeTickingStockCharts

I’ve added a modifier

new YAxisDragModifier({
            dragMode: EDragMode.Scaling,
        }),

I see icon changed to arrows but scaling does not work. What should I check ?

Hi there,

Wow this library has come along way in ten years. My question is related to interaction between RS and the legend that is rendered by the chartmodifier.

I declare the legend something like this during the initial bootstrapping of the plot view:

        const legend = new LegendModifier({placementDivId: "legend-goes-here", id:"legend"});
        sciChartSurface.chartModifiers.add(legend);

After that, I have a custom interface available for users to change things, which eventually results in visibility or color changes, updating an RS something like this:

        const thisRs = surface.renderableSeries.getById(`${s.fileId}-${s.name}`);
        if (thisRs) {
            thisRs.isVisible = s.isVisible;
            thisRs.stroke = s.visualInfo?.colorCode ?? "#FFFFFF";
        } 

These changes do not appear to be propagated to the legend despite the series on the plot changing. I guess my questions are:

1) What’s the expected behavior/is there something obvious I’m missing about the model?
2) Any suggestions?

It may very well be somewhere lost in my fairly complex React app, but I first wanted to confirm that I’m not missing something in the api.

Thanks!
Dan

Hi everyone,

I am using SciChart trial in Angular and I find it so powerful
Thanks for developing this
However, I am having some troubles using it with plotting realtime stock data

From having searched around I found that it is recommended to use CategoryAxis for stock charts to avoid gaps on days without data
However, how do I append/update the data with new data coming in
XYDataSeries.append takes a number for the x-value

In the code below, assume “addNewData” is called every second
How do I properly add the new data with the new DateTime and also format it however i would like

Thanks for your help

  sciChartSurface.xAxes.add(new CategoryAxis(wasmContext));
  sciChartSurface.yAxes.add(new NumericAxis(wasmContext,{
    axisAlignment: EAxisAlignment.Left,
  }));

  addNewData(){
    const x = new Number(new Date()).toString()
    if(this.sciChartSurface){
      const series = this.sciChartSurface.renderableSeries.get(0);
      const dataSeries = <XyDataSeries> series.dataSeries;
      const x = dataSeries.count();
      const y = Math.random()
      dataSeries.append(x, y)
      this.sciChartSurface.zoomExtents()
    }
  }

Hello,

I need to customize the text for some points on a XyScatterRenderableSeries graph. The problem is that the dataLabelProvider available for XyScatterRenderableSeries is BaseDataLabelProvider, but it doesn’t have a metaDataSelector method and I can’t do it with it. Interestingly, using LineSeriesDataLabelProvider I was able to add text for the points I needed using metadata, but another problem arose. In this case, if there is only one point on the graph, the text will not be drawn.

Here is a small example of how text is drawn for different numbers of points. https://codepen.io/PodaRocheK/pen/jOXYGMJ?editors=0011

Can you advise me on how to display text near points more correctly in the case when I use XyScatterRenderableSeries and often this text should disappear or appear near some points. Thanks a lot!

Hi,

EDataLabelSkipMode Customization is possible with some time range limit?
When i checked the documentation saw the options to skip the label for overlaping. Is it possible can add some index to skip the values. Eg: for Time chart One value is displayed in the chart at 10:30:00. So if i add some index value to skip the next 1 min data. So based on skip index next available value can ba displayed in chart. (10:31:00 or next available value). Can you implement this option to skip ?

Hi!
Currently, I’m using Axis Layout – vertically stacked axes。When I use vertically stacked axes, click on a certain area, can I get on that axis? It’s from click on a certain area, not the series. I know the series can it.
can you give me some help?

Good afternoon. Please tell me how can I change the Z index of the annotations so that the box annotation can overlap the text. Now no matter how I try to do it, the text is always above the rectangles. Does the JS version have some layers with annotations that can be changed by they Z like in this question – https://www.scichart.com/questions/wpf/changing-an-annotations-z-index

Unfortunately, I did not find this functionality in the JS version.
