custom axis bands

Hello and thanks for your response.
I’ve attached an image of what I’m attempting to accomplish.

This is data depicting sensor data. The band needs to be displayed at specific times based on the data.
The band that is displayed will need to be dynamic and change based on the data that is loaded.

Let me know if this helps, or if you need anything else.

Regards,

Aaron

Hello Aaron,

Thank you for the clarification.
The easiest way to place the custom colored bands on the SciChartSurface would be to use Box Annotations:
SciChart WPF Documentation – The BoxAnnotation Type _ WPF Chart Documentation

For X1 and X2 coordinates, you can apply values that would determine the edges of the colored regions, while for Y1 and Y2 you can use relative coordinates stretching the annotation to the full SciChartSurface height.

To set relative coordinates, you should set the CoordinateMode property to “RelativeY” on the annotation:
SciChart WPF Documentation – AnnotationCoordinateMode Enumeration

And then use the “0.0” and “1.0” values for Y1 and Y2 coordinates.

Additionally, you can enable manual position changes by setting the IsEditable property to “True”.

For example:

        <s:SciChartSurface.Annotations>
            <s:BoxAnnotation Background="Red" Opacity="0.3" BorderThickness="0"
                             CoordinateMode="RelativeY" IsEditable="True"
                             X1="1.1" X2="1.15" Y1="0.0" Y2="1.0" />
        </s:SciChartSurface.Annotations>

Thanks Lex.

Sorry for the delay but I’m now getting back to this project. I’m guessing this can also be done programmatically instead of through xaml, as I may have the need to have several on one graph.
