Tag: Annotation

When I enter PathAnnotation in the xaml, I get the error “The type ‘s:PathAnnotation’ was not found.” I do have the following Annotation types available:
– AxisMarkerAnnotation
– BoxAnnotation
– CustomAnnotation
– HorizontalLineAnnotation
– LineAnnotation
– LineArrowAnnotation
– SeriesValueAxisMarkerAnnotation
– TextAnnotation
– VerticalLineAnnotation

I want to be able to make a star shape annotation, and PathAnnotation seemed to be the only way to do this. Please let me know if there’s another way to do this.

Thanks,
Rachel

Hi,

Can you please tell me how to show an annotation(extends at BoxAnnotation(x1, y1, 2, y2)) that starts at a certain point(x1, y1) and ends at the end of the chart. That is, the starting point (x1) is known, and the end point (x2) at the very end of the surface (graph)?
Thanks in advance.

Hi, guys

Is there something similar like

• (void)bringSubviewToFront:(UIView *)view;
• (void)sendSubviewToBack:(UIView *)view;

from UIView but for chart Annotations?

Hi,
I’ve created a custom annotation and have set it’s .IsEditable property in code so the user can reposition it. I have two issues:
1.I want the user to be able to resize the “PPZLine” in the X direction, but I can’t figure out how to get the anchor points to appear.

1. I want to be able to see the chart data that the annotation is covering. I tried setting AnnotationCanvas = BelowChart, but then I couldn’t move the annotation or get any annotation mouse handlers to trigger.

Here’s the annoation’s xaml:

<s:CustomAnnotation x:Class="CinchV2DemoWPF.Views.SciChart.PPZView"

        </Grid.RowDefinitions>

    <!-- price line must use margin 0,0 or obj will not be visible-->
        <s:BoxAnnotation Name="LongEntryMarker" Grid.Row="0"
                       Width="20"    Height="10"  Background="DarkViolet" Margin="0,0"  VerticalAlignment="Top" 
                         HorizontalAlignment="Right"
                         >
        </s:BoxAnnotation>

        <!-- long marker line MouseRightButtonDown="LongEntryMarker_OnMouseRightButtonDown"-->
        <s:BoxAnnotation Name="PPZLine" Grid.Row="1"
                       Width="150"    Height="5"  Background="red" Margin="0,0"  VerticalAlignment="Top" 
                         >
        </s:BoxAnnotation>
</Grid>
</s:CustomAnnotation>

There is a problem with annotation drag listeners. OnDragEnded and in fact also OnDragStarted are called all the time (just like onDragDelta) instead of only on those particular events

Steps to reproduce
just add a listener to annotation (in my case CustomAnnotation)

.withAnnotationDragListener(object : OnAnnotationDragListener {
            override fun onDragDelta(annotation: IAnnotation, x: Float, y: Float) {
                //whatever
            }

            override fun onDragStarted(p0: IAnnotation?) {
                "onDRAGSTARTED".log()
            }
            override fun onDragEnded(p0: IAnnotation?) {
                "ONDRAGENDED".log()
            }
        })

Is there a solution?

I’m currently trying to adapt an example to post here as an example repro– But in the meantime I figured I’d post and see if there are any fundamental problems with trying to do this.

The exception message states:

Additional information: Cannot get data-value from coordinate as the associated Axis is null

 var annotationMax = new HorizontalLineAnnotation () {
                            Stroke = new SolidColorBrush (Colors.DarkRed),
                            HorizontalAlignment = System.Windows.HorizontalAlignment.Center,
                            Y1 = item.MaxBandwith,
                            Y2 = item.MaxBandwith,
                            X1 = item.FromWavelength,
                            X2 = item.ToWavelength,
                        };
                        var label = annotationMax.AddLabel ();

after last line label is null
???

Hi

I don’t understand how to disable dragging an annotation with mouse. I didn’t find anything in your documentation.

I have a simple annotation as follows:

                                <s:HorizontalLineAnnotation x:Name="line" IsEditable="False" IsManipulationEnabled="False"  IsAttached="True" Y1="2020" ShowLabel="True" LabelValue="" LabelPlacement="TopRight" Stroke="Red"/>

tried with IsEditable=”False” IsManipulationEnabled=”False” IsAttached=”True” but nothing seems to work.

Could you please help me ?
thank you
