Tag: Axis

I want to paint my time axis like this:

Or just highlight last week, day, hour.
Is there way to apply style only on part of axis?

Is it possible to set different color to axis ticks and axis title.
In 2D-Chart i did it by changing the style of DefaultTickLabel:

<Style x:Key="NumericAxisForMvvm" TargetType="axis:NumericAxisForMvvm">

  <Setter Property="FontSize" Value="12" />
  <Setter Property="FontFamily" Value="Arial" />
  <Setter Property="FontWeight" Value="Bold" />
  <Setter Property="TickTextBrush" Value="Red" />

  <Setter Property="TickLabelStyle">
    <Setter.Value>
      <Style TargetType="s:DefaultTickLabel">

        <Setter Property="FontSize" Value="16" />
        <Setter Property="FontWeight" Value="Normal" />
        <Setter Property="FontFamily" Value="Courier New" />
        <Setter Property="Foreground" Value="Blue" />

        <Setter Property="Template">
          <Setter.Value>
            <ControlTemplate TargetType="s:DefaultTickLabel">
              <ContentControl Content="{Binding}"
                              ContentTemplate="{TemplateBinding ContentTemplate}"
                              IsTabStop="False" 
                              Foreground="{TemplateBinding Foreground}" 
                              FontFamily="{TemplateBinding FontFamily}"
                              FontSize="{TemplateBinding FontSize}"
                              FontWeight="{TemplateBinding FontWeight}"/>
            </ControlTemplate>
          </Setter.Value>
        </Setter>
      </Style>
    </Setter.Value>
  </Setter>
</Style>

Same procedure seems doesn’t work for 3D-Charts.
How can i achieve this?
Is that currently possible?

I am considering applying server-side licensing for my javerScript application.

In the document below, there is a phrase “Our server-side licensing component is written in C++.”
(https://support-dev.scichart.com/index.php?/Knowledgebase/Article/View/17256/42/)

However, there is only asp.net sample code on the provided github.
(https://github.com/ABTSoftware/SciChart.JS.Examples/tree/master/Sandbox/demo-dotnet-server-licensing)

I wonder if there is a sample code implemented in C++ for server-side licensing.

Can you provide c++ sample code?
Also, are there any examples to run on Ubuntu?

Hi SciChart support,

we experience problems with clipping x axis values, depending on x-axis value range.
assume we have xaxis range from 1000000 to 1000001 and a diagram with a margin of lets say 10 pixels to the right of the container control. Depending on the zoom, the label of the mostright xaxis value(e.g. “1000001”) may be clipped just because the string is just too long. Would you recommend to change the margin dynamically to avoid the clipping or is there a way to prevent the chart from putting the rightmost xaxis value label if it exceeds the diagram bounds?

Hope you could help me.

Thanks in advance, Andreas

Hi,

I’m actually working on new wpf application using Scichart and I’m wondering how to plot only XAxis and YAxis without labels and without gridlines.

Here is my code, I cannot not figure out what is missing to do that:

            <s:SciChartSurface.YAxis>
                <s:NumericAxis VisibleRange="{Binding ...}"
                               MajorGridLineStyle="{Binding ...}"
                               TickLabelStyle="{Binding ...}"
                               MajorDelta="{Binding ...}"
                               MinorDelta="1"
                               AutoTicks="False"
                               AxisAlignment="Left"
                               DrawMajorGridLines="false
                               DrawMinorGridLines="false"
                               DrawMajorBands="false"
                               DrawMajorTicks="false"
                               DrawMinorTicks="false"
                               DrawLabels="false"
            </s:SciChartSurface.YAxis>


        <Style x:Key="NoGraphGridLineStyle" TargetType="s:NumericAxis">
            <Setter Property="Visibility" Value="Collapsed" />
        </Style>

Hello!

I am trying to render a HeatMap and align labels next to squares (see the attached image). However, I am running into two issues.

Firstly, I am using RenderTransform to shift labels so that they are aligned with the squares instead of being on the borders between them. It works, but does not look good as I resize the control.

Second, the axes render the last label outside the view. I tried setting VisualRange and VisualRangeLimit but it did not help. It hides the last data column (or row) and still displays the last label.

Any suggestions on how I can solve it?

I am attaching a sample project.

Thank you in advance!

Hello,

I am trying to set the interval on the x-axis in a polar plot but it doesn’t appear to be accepting it and plotting accordingly. My axis definition is quite simple:

<s:SciChartSurface.XAxis>
       <s:PolarXAxis Name="TFxAxis" MajorDelta="15"/>
</s:SciChartSurface.XAxis>

I am plotting angles and radii so one data point might be (45, 1) and the next (50, 2) and so on where my visible range is TFxAxis.VisibleRange = new DoubleRange(-180.0, 180.0). Very simple plot but it keeps returning to a default of 1 on my MajorDelta for the x-axis and then showing major axes at 50 degree intervals. I’ve tried a variety of solutions but nothing seems to work properly.
Thanks,
Christina

Hello.
Thanks for previous answer but I can’t check how it work because of new problem. I develop WPF application and try to use MVVM as architecture pattern. In the Model part of my application I used a loop started in the new thread. In that loop I get some data which received to ViewModel and used as chart data. Looks as usual.
But then I tried to set visible range updated object which bound to axis I get exception ‘System.InvalidOperationException: ‘The calling thread cannot access this object because a different thread owns it.’ in my loop. I know it happens in WPF applications and need to use Dispatcher to solve it. But as I know if you try to use MVVM you not needed to use Dispatcher often because WPF-binding in most cases is thread-safe. That happend in my case? How to solve it?
