I am using MVVM and am having problems and need you to have a quick look please as this is substantial

1)Run Solution

2)Click on Load, browse to folder Configuration\20120814 and select OK

3) 6 data series will load, the program then adds random data for each trace. The point count for each trace is shown on the form

4) After a few minutes, the update speed of the points reduces (this is not intended) the counter should update each second

5) when the count reaches about 16000 the program is pretty well locked up and non responsive.

It may well be a problem that I have introduced, at least I hope it is, as our intended application will be using very large data sets
Please could you have a look ASAP and get back to me

You have also not replied to the annotation problem I explained in another thread, I sent you example code to show you the problem

Thanks

Hello,
I’m using your package for price charting. And I need to put on one bar (or candlestick) several markers (for example several dots with different colours and sizes). Also sometimes I need to change size on some of these markers. Now I am doing this by putting CustomAnnotations. Is there a way to plot the same with for example XyScatterRenderableSeries to increase drawing speed?

Best regards,
Roman.

I’m trying out polar chart for my specific needs. In my scenario x-axis needs to display 0-360 (angle) values starting from bottom and going counter-clockwise so that 0 is at the bottom, 90 is at right, 180 is at the top and so on. Looking at polar chart default x-axis display it starts from right and go clockwise. Is there any way to change this behavior?

In my project the output panel showing the following binding errors

I made an example based on the “Vertically Stacked Axes” from SciChart Examples. The main difference is that I can add DataSeries / YAxes on the fly.

The problem is that when I set VisibleRange and VisibleRangeLimit it does not crop the trace (as you can see on the Tan traces that are drawn on the whole surface).

Is there any way to crop the traces to VisibleRange of corresponding Axis?

Hello,

I have ClipModeX=”ClipAtExtents” on my ZoomPanModifier. I need the same behavior on the y-axis, but there is no “ClipModeY”.

How do I prevent y-axis data from panning off the chart?

Thanks,
Neville

Hi, I am displaying no of BoxAnnotation , I want to link some of the BoxAnnotation randomly .I want to perform the operaton on annotation with relation.When it move BoxAnnotation,related link should also move accordingly.I am also performing Y axis with yaxisID so Annotation also move to Y direction with Y axis.
Please help me out.
Thanks

Hello. I need to provide custom point marker with height and width based on my data, but trying to implement BasePointMarker I have the center points but not the original data to make the width and height based in my original binding. Is there a solution to do that? Thank you.

Hello,

I have to draw vertical straight line and horizontal curved line. Here is the requirements,

• Before two lines intersect they should draw as dashed lines
• After two lines intersect they should draw as solid lines
• Both the lines should be move by clicking mouse pointer
• And background color of lines intersect area should be white, other places should be gray color

I could draw the vertical line using two VerticalLineAnnotations however I don’t know how to draw curved line and implement above requirements. Please refer the attached sample image file.

Thanks.

Hi!

I would like to ask what is the best strategy to implement 1-to-many relationship between DataSeries and SciChartSurfaces, when charts are shown in a second window and presumably rendered in its UI thread.

Currently I have a root object in the main window that creates and carry updates for a single DataSeries. The object has a property that creates a new SciChartSurfaces instance programmatically everytime, as the property is read. As a chart is created, I assign the same DataSeries as source for chart’s RenderableSeries.

This approach allows me to multiple charts in the second window and all these chart share the same dataseries on the root object. However, I have some issues with flicking, re-rendering and updating. For example, only the most recently created chart redraws after updates in the dataseries. I use dataSeries.SuspendUpdates() and batch Append but I guess it works only for the last chart.

I attached here a screenshot showing what happening when the shared DataSeries is filled with random values in real-time.

Could you recommend something for this scenario?

Thanks in advance,

Ilia

How can I only show Legends when the corresponding RenederableSeries is visible.
If the corresponding RenderableSeries is not visible then that Legend shouldn’t be shown.
Keep in mind my users will be able to hide and show RenderableSeries during runtime.

My xaml code is:

                                            <s:LegendModifier x:Name="legendModifier" ShowVisibilityCheckboxes="False" Orientation="Vertical" ShowLegend="{Binding ParentViewModel.ShowLegends, Mode=TwoWay}" Margin="10" />
                                        <s:SeriesSelectionModifier>
                                            <s:SeriesSelectionModifier.SelectedSeriesStyle>
                                                <Style TargetType="s:BaseRenderableSeries">
                                                    <Setter Property="StrokeThickness" Value="3"/>
                                                </Style>
                                            </s:SeriesSelectionModifier.SelectedSeriesStyle>
                                        </s:SeriesSelectionModifier>

Hi folks,

I haven’t been able to produce scatter charts using a XyScatterRenderableSeries. To demonstrate, I took a sample project you sent me earlier and replaced one line as shown below:

_chartSeries = new ObservableCollection<IChartSeriesViewModel>();
//var renderableSeries = new FastLineRenderableSeries { SeriesColor = Colors.BlueViolet};
var renderableSeries = new XyScatterRenderableSeries { SeriesColor = Colors.BlueViolet};
_chartSeries.Add(new ChartSeriesViewModel(ds0, renderableSeries));

With the original FastLineRenderableSeries, I see the chart. But with XyScatterRenderableSeries, the data does not appear. (Annotations remain visible, of course.)

Am I doing something wrong, or does the ChartSeriesViewModel not work with scatter charts?

Thanks,
–George

How can i wrap legend? if legend width is out of window.

I have a WPF TextBlock control that I want to set the foreground color for based on the colors in the current SciChart theme (I want to make it the same color as, say, the axis titles). How do I access the color values for the current theme?

How can i change default chart title style? like margin,font size etc

I was trying to figure out why I couldn’t get minor tick marks to appear on my axes and then I realized it’s because of the theme I was using (BrightSpark). Just a heads up to anyone else who may run into this.

IMO themes should not hide chart features such as tick marks.
