Hi~
I am trying to create a plot that animates ODS (Operating Deflection Shape) using FRF (Frequency Response Function) data. Is ODS animation possible using scichart’s gemoetry 3D plot?
Thanks.

I am working on a multithreaded application where the acquisition and chart display run on different threads. I am attempting to collect samples and plot only when I have 100 samples available to have less resource consumption and keep the application responsive. However, when I change the number of samples in the block, my FIFO capacity seems to change, allowing significantly less amount of samples than the ones I need. The current FIFO capacity should allow for at least 16 mins worth of data, but it only shows less than a second

If I set the block size to 1 (single sample appending) I obtain the results I need, but I am seeing performance issues in other areas of the program, hence the need of appending in blocks.

See the attachments for more clarity. Any suggestions?

EDIT: Adding code

private void DisplayNPD()
        {
            XyDataSeries<float, float> npdRawDataSeries = new XyDataSeries<float, float>();
            int fifoSize = 1000000;
            npdRawDataSeries.FifoCapacity = fifoSize;
            npdRawData_RS.DataSeries = npdRawDataSeries;

            double npdRaw = 0;
            bool successfulDequeue = false;
            int samplesQueued = 0;
            int samplesInBlock = 100;
            float[] rawSamples = new float[samplesInBlock];
            float[] time = new float[samplesInBlock];

            while (!ImagingSession.terminateThreads)
            {
                if (ImagingSession.laserOnOff && !graphRestarted)

                    int npdElementsInQueue = npdDisplayQueue.Count;
                    if (npdElementsInQueue > 0)
                        successfulDequeue = npdDisplayQueue.TryDequeue(out npdRaw);

                    if (successfulDequeue)

                        time[samplesQueued] = (float) currentTime;
                        rawSamples[samplesQueued] = (float) (npdRaw * 1000);

                        samplesQueued++;
                        if (samplesQueued == samplesInBlock)
                        {

                                npdRawDataSeries.Append(time, rawSamples);
                            samplesQueued = 0;

                            if (currentTime > upperLimit)
                            {
                                lowerLimit = upperLimit;
                                upperLimit += xAxisWidth;
                                AdjustXAxis(currentHorizontalScale);
                            }

Hi,

I want to change the grid distance between the two slices dynamically in both X , Y and Z direction. But whatever the value I set for StepZ and StepX, nothing changes in the output. I still see the same graph.

Please can you suggest if there is any way to achieve this.

I am attaching the code of waterfall example here.

I want to implement something like, if a certain analysis value/custom logic is true for one of the values in the loop, –> set this bar color to ‘orange’ as an example, how can i do this?

   // Create a dataset of type x=DateTime, y=Double
  var dataSeries = new OhlcDataSeries<DateTime, double>();

   // Prices are in the format Time, Open, High, Low, Close (all IList)
  var prices = smallerList;

    // Append data to series. SciChart automatically redraws
    for (var i = 0; i < prices.Count(); i++)
   {

 // Convert TIME to a 4-digit string (e.g., 5 becomes "0005", 15 becomes "0015")
 string timeString = prices[i].Value.TIME.ToString("D4");

 // Parse the TIME field
 int hour = int.Parse(timeString.Substring(0, 2));
 int minute = int.Parse(timeString.Substring(2, 2));

 // Create the DateTime object
 DateTime dateTime = new DateTime(prices[i].Value.YEAR, prices[i].Value.MONTH, prices[i].Value.DAY,      hour, minute, 0);
 Dispatcher.Invoke(() =>
 {
     //here we append values in 'dataSeries', how do i do something like, 'bool condition = 
// returnCustomLogic('dataValues') --> outputs true, if true --> set this bar color to orange

     // Update the UI element on the UI thread
     dataSeries.Append(
    dateTime,
    (double)prices[i].Value.OPEN,
    (double)prices[i].Value.HIGH,
    (double)prices[i].Value.LOW,
    (double)prices[i].Value.CLOSE);

   });


   }
     Dispatcher.Invoke(() =>
     {
 StockChart.RenderableSeries[0].DataSeries = dataSeries;

 // Zoom Extents - necessary as we have AutoRange=False
 StockChart.ZoomExtents();
   });

I am trying to subscribe to Visible Range changes on a DateTimeNumericAxis, it is not working, am I doing something wrong?

Hello SciChart-Team!

I’m trying to export a graph from my application using the “ExportToFile”-method.
This is what my code looks

Chart.ExportToFile(@"C:\Users\miko\Desktop\export.xps", SciChart.Core.ExportType.Xps, false, new Size(2560, 1440));

When this is being called the following exception is being raised

Exception thrown: 'SciChart.Charting.Common.Helpers.ExportException' in SciChart.Charting.dll
Additional information: Exception occured during deserialization of the SeriesSelectionModifier type. The SelectedSeriesStyle property of the Style type cannot be processed. Please be advised that SciChart doesn't handle serialization of objects with propeties of interface type, collection type or custom type.You need to implement IXmlSerializible in such objects to have them handled properly. For more details, please check the InnerException.

This exception seems to be related to the SeriesSelectionModifier I have applied to my chart.

The modifier XAML:

<s:SeriesSelectionModifier
    x:Name="seriesSelection
    SelectedSeriesStyle="{StaticResource selectedSeriesStyle}"
    SelectionChanged="seriesSelection_SelectionChanged" />

The style XAML

<Style x:Key="selectedSeriesStyle" TargetType="{x:Type s:FastLineRenderableSeries}">
     <Setter Property="PointMarkerTemplate">
         <Setter.Value>
             <ControlTemplate>
                 <s:EllipsePointMarker
                 Width="6"
                 Height="6"
                 Fill="White"
                 Stroke="Black" />
            </ControlTemplate>
         </Setter.Value>
     </Setter>
 </Style>

When I remove the SeriesSelectionModifier from my XAML all works as expected.
What am I missing?

I was doing a bit of thinking about how I would be adding a horizontal line to my financial data series because my x-axis was in Date format. So I wrote this walkthrough with 2 functions to help any devs that come along after me.

My example is a bar chart with prices on the vertical y-axis and dates on the x-axis. the final product is posted below as a pic. All that is needed is to count the items in your date data series and you can position your bar relative to that.

my dates were in this object array and I just counted the array to get my bearings.

let totalBars = lastPriceList.count        //  holds number of bars in my price object
let startBar = totalBars - 100             //  this will make my line 100 bars long
let sellPrice = lastBar?.shortEntryPrice   //  here is the price level of the line I want to plot

then I passed that to this function to get a horizontal line

addTradeEntry(SignalLine: sellPrice!, StartBar: startBar, EndBar: totalBars)

here are the 2 functions that do all of the work

private func addTradeEntry(SignalLine: Double, StartBar: Int, EndBar: Int) {

    let horizontalLine1 = SCIHorizontalLineAnnotation()
    horizontalLine1.coordinateMode = .absolute;

// lower number pushes to left side of x axis
    horizontalLine1.x1 = SCIGeneric(StartBar)   
// higher number pushes bar right of x axis
    horizontalLine1.x2 = SCIGeneric(EndBar)    

// the position on y (price) axis
    horizontalLine1.y1 = SCIGeneric(SignalLine) 
    horizontalLine1.horizontalAlignment = .center

    horizontalLine1.isEditable = false
    horizontalLine1.style.linePen = SCISolidPenStyle.init(color: UIColor.red, withThickness: 2.0)
    horizontalLine1.add(self.buildLineTextLabel("Sell \(SignalLine)", alignment: .left, backColor: UIColor.clear, textColor: UIColor.red))
    surface.annotations.add(horizontalLine1)
}

this one formats the text

private func buildLineTextLabel(_ text: String, alignment: SCILabelPlacement, backColor: UIColor, textColor: UIColor) -> SCILineAnnotationLabel {
    let lineText = SCILineAnnotationLabel()
    lineText.text = text
    lineText.style.labelPlacement = alignment
    lineText.style.backgroundColor = backColor
    lineText.style.textStyle.color = textColor
    return lineText
}

Hello, SciChart Team!
i have an issue using mouse drag event ( RubberBandXyZoomModifier, ZoomPanMidifier). the message says “NullReferenceException in SciChart.Charting.dll ” or “Thread.cs not found” from time to time.
after some experiments i figured out that the app starts to crush after i change XAxis type .
i have a simple mvvm user control used to display both arrays of double and datebound data, XAxes of SciChart Surfase is bound to an observable collection of IAxis elements. if i need to change chart type i clear this collection and create an axis of desired type (DateTimeAxisViewModel or NumericAxisViewModel). after that the series can be added, but zooming causes crash with nearly to no info.

i attached a solution, which lacks only scichart dlls in order to run (hopefully), Window_Loaded method has a commented line which changes chart type and makes app crush on zooming, would be nice if you checked it out.
Thanks in advance!

I found the example for spline drawing, but it’s still missing the gradient brush that mountain series have, how can I add it? thanks

I’m looking for some direction on how to implement a modifier that reacts to interaction (mouse up/down etc) with a charts axis

• User clicks on axis
• Provide callback for side effect when clicked

Thanks

Hi,
is there a way to store an additional value to the XyDataSeries.
In my case I want to store some additional information (string) while recording.

Hi,
I’m trying to implement a market footprint with SciChart framework, I mean is possible create like a plugin for implement in the framework?
My idea was set body color of all the candles invisible and than for every candle set two volume series in horizontal like in the image.

Hello SciChart-Team,
I noticed that the columns in Sparse Column3D and in Uniform Column 3D always start at the XZ surface. Is there any option or way to do so, that columns always use the zero value of the Y axis as their starting point. The visible range of the axes should correspond to the minimum and maximum Y values.

The current behavior can be reproduced in the example SciChart_UniformColumn3D:
If the VisibleRange of the Y-axis goes from 0 to 0.5 then the columns with negative values go down (see screenshot 1)
As soon as the VisibleRange of the Y-axis goes from -0.5 to 0.5, the columns look like this (Screenshot2) We need the columns to look like in Screenshot 1, only that the Y-axis is also visible downwards.

Can the starting point of the columns be changed?

Best regards
Silvester

I am dynamically adding and removing items from an observablecollection of Irenderable series in my viewmodel, and binding it to the renderableseries on the chart surface. However, when I add and remove items that I want to be ordered, and are appropriately ordered in the collection, they are not ordered on the legend.

Is there a way to reorder the series in the legend (MVVM solution would be great)?

You can replicate the issue (or the symptom), by toggling the visibilty of the series in the below example by clicking the checkbox within the legend and then switching the getlegenddatafrom to visible series, and then switch back. (no longer in ABC order).

Hi,

We found that the part of our project that uses scichart does not work correctly on iOS12, and then we tried to open a browser on iOS12 to the scichart javascript demo webpage, and found that it did not work.

What is the minimum iOS version supported by javscript scichart?

There is a tabcontrol with two tabitems. Scichart control is in one tabitem, the xy line renderable series of scichart control count is about 5000, and each series has 2000 datas.
At the start, I load and show the scichart curves with loading icon, and it run normally. Then, change to the other tabitem. When I change back to the scichart tabitem , it will taken about 10 secends.
How to reduce the reshow time? Or is there any event occurs when reshow finished which I can used to show loading icon?

Hello,

I am trying to change the frequency range in the Y axis on the Heatmap to 100000 from 50000, but the plot does not seem to be working to scale to the proper frequency range on the Y axis. I expect the plot to keep the same scale around 20000 for the upper line when I change the upper scale to 100000, but the graph scales the upper line up to 40000. I’m using function Heatmap2DArrayDataSeries() and passing the series data along with TimeFunc() for mapping to X axis and FreqFunc() for mapping to Y axis. I made some changes to FreqFunc(), but it did not change the upper line to 20000. See below for my partial code. Thanks,

    protected override void OnDisplayLoaded()
    {
    ...
    ...
        _dopplersurface.YAxes[0].VisibleRange = YVisibleRange2; // YVisibleRange2 = {0, 100000}
        _surface.UpdateLayout();

    }

    private void PlotData()
    {
    ...
        ...
        heatmap2DArrayDataSeries = new Heatmap2DArrayDataSeries<DateTime, double, double>(_spectrogramBuffer, TimeFunc, FreqFunc);
        HeatmapRenderableSeries = heatmap2DArrayDataSeries;
    }

    double FreqFunc(int iy)
    {
        double FreqDelta = 1.0 / (time_queue[1] - time_queue[0]).TotalSeconds / (FFT_Points / 2.0);
        if (((FFT_Points / 2.0) * FreqDelta / 2) < (double)YVisibleRange2.Max); // FFT_Points = 1024
        {
            FreqDelta = FreqDelta * 2;
        }
        return iy * FreqDelta / 2; // Returns 0 if iy is 0 and 50000 if iy is 512
    }

    DateTime TimeFunc(int ix)
    {
        if (time_queue.Count > (ix * Step))
        {
            DateTime DateTimeTemp1 = time_queue[ix * Step];
            return DateTimeTemp1;
        }
        else
        {
            return time_queue[time_queue.Count - 1];
        }
    }

From what I’ve read into chrome’s roadmap, everything seems on track for a webgpu release in May.
Is scichart taking this into account and planning to add webgpu support?
I suspect this would make quite an impact on performance, so it would be a great addition.

Thanks!

Following the “How to Template the Axis Title” sample and using a simple TextBlock with TextWrapping=”Wrap” I am seeing strange resizing of the main chart elements especially with a scrollbar.

The attached image shows an example app (code available).

The first chart is normal (title clipped).
The second chart has the wrapping textblock and a scrollbar. The scrollbar is off the edge, the chart view area is off the edge. The entire axis label is still not visible (“Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur”)
The third chart has no scrollbar so fits elements on the window, but still does not show all text.

The components creeping offscreen is the big problem I cannot figure out how to fix. Please

Note also happens in v7

Hello,

Python with Matplotlib allows us to draw a line series that has multiple color depending on something else as shown below (https://matplotlib.org/3.3.0/gallery/lines_bars_and_markers/multicolored_line.html):

Is it possible with SciChart (WPF version)?

Hi, I have an issue where I am trying to create multiple xAxes where one is normal and the rest are horizontally stacked. Then I calculate the stacked length of each stacked axes, but the issue comes when I change the width of the chart or inspect element, which would alter the width of the chart somehow, I got error saying the total width of the stacked axes is bigger than available size.

I have a codesanbox example of it:
https://codesandbox.io/s/scichart-stacked-xaxis-stacked-length-issue-3knt23?file=/src/App.tsx

I am using percentage for the stacked xAxes length and then I added them up to be 100% total, but somehow it is saying that it is more than available size.

So, my question is, how can I listen or get the width/size changes event of the chart/xAxis, so that I can calculate accordingly?

Hi,
Could anyone explain me what’s that about these errors?

Hi SciChart,

We are experiencing a SciChart XPS export issue.

I am using a FlowDocumentPageViewer with a FlowDocument containing SciChart graphs. My goal is to export all pages of the FlowDocument to an XPS file using the XamlRenderSurface to save in vector graphics. However, I’m facing an issue where only the currently selected page exports correctly, while the other pages display empty graphs.

By default, we employ the VisualXcceleratorRenderSurface for all SciChart render surfaces. Before exporting, I programmatically switch them to XamlRenderSurface to save in vector graphics. This approach works well when all the graphs have been rendered on-screen at least once with the new surface type before exporting. However, if a graph hasn’t been rendered on-screen before exporting, it appears empty, and only the graphs from the selected page export correctly. You can find code snippets below.

XAML code:

<s:SciChartSurface
    x:Name="PART_Surface"
    ...
    RenderSurface="{TemplateBinding RenderType, Converter={StaticResource RenderTypeConverter}}"
    ...

Converter:

public class RenderTypeConverter : IValueConverter
{
    public object Convert(object value, Type targetType, object parameter, CultureInfo culture)
    {
        // Set render settings
        return (RenderType)value switch
        {
            RenderType.DirectX => new VisualXcceleratorRenderSurface(),
            RenderType.HighQuality => new HighQualityRenderSurface(),
            RenderType.HighSpeed => new HighSpeedRenderSurface(),
            RenderType.Vector => new XamlRenderSurface(),
            _ => new HighSpeedRenderSurface(),
        };
    }
    ...
}

Export:

private void ExportVector(string fullPath)
{
    // Sets the RenderType to Vector for all surfaces
    // This invokes RenderTypeConverter to set the RenderSurface to XamlRenderSurface
    // Since they are bound in the XAML code
    SetAxesSurfacesRenderToVector();

    XPS_Export_AllPagesOfFlowDocument(fullPath);

    // DirectX is always the default for all surfaces that we use
    ResetAxesSurfacesToDirectX();
}
private void XPS_Export_AllPagesOfFlowDocument(string fullPath)
{
    using (var package = Package.Open(fullPath, FileMode.Create))
    {
        using (var xpsDocument = new XpsDocument(package, CompressionOption.Maximum))
        {
            var xpsSerializationManager = new XpsSerializationManager(new XpsPackagingPolicy(xpsDocument), false);
            var documentPaginator = ((IDocumentPaginatorSource)FlowDocument)?.DocumentPaginator;
            xpsSerializationManager.SaveAsXaml(documentPaginator);

            xpsDocument.Close();
        }
    }
}

The binding and the converter works for all offscreen elements, yet the they won’t take effect until rendered on screen at least once.
I have to select each page manually, after setting all graphs to use XamlRenderSurface, so each would be rendered on screen at least once before the export.

My question is: How can I export XamlRenderSurfaces that are off-screen and haven’t been rendered on-screen before the export process?

You can find an image below showcasing the problem.

Thank you and looking forward to your reply!

Best Regards,
Kaloyan Krastev

I’ve got a dashboard implemented with stacked bar charts that are not very big. I added the RolloverModifier to show some relevant data for each bar and set the ClipToBounds property to false.
It works fine when the stacked bar chart doesn’t have too many series (see attached image). I just wanted to resize the font and use only one line for each value, instead of name on one line and value on another.

I’ve tried setting the font size property (and others) but it didn’t work.

Thanks for your help.

Hi.
My colleagues have used on their WPF application SciChartScrollbar to select a portion of a created graph. I want to use the same behavior on Xamarin.Android. What can I use to have the same effect?
Thank you.

Hi,
is it possible to style (dashed lines) just a segment of the line in a line chart?

I want to configure the chart as shown in the image.
How should I code to implement the same image in SciChart?

I want to make label on yAxis.
SCIChart provides AxisMarkerAnnotation, but I want to use CustomAnnotation because I need something custom.
So I tried drawing a CustomAnnotation on the yAxis but failed.
Android succeeds in drawing CustomAnnotation on the yAxis using the method below, but iOS doesn’t provide it?
On iOS, Can’t customAnnotation only set the value of the yAxis like AxisMarkerAnnotation?
Android was possible…

error message like this
Exception raised with reason: CALayer position contains NaN: [nan 248.71]. Layer: <CALayer:0x280c10bc0; position = CGPoint (0 0); bounds = CGRect (0 0; 0 0); delegate = <BTChart.CurrentPriceAnnotationView: 0x13d74d8f0; frame = (0 0; 0 0); layer = <CALayer: 0x280c10bc0>>; sublayers = (<_UILabelLayer: 0x282d15860>); opaque = YES; allowsGroupOpacity = YES; >

Hi there,
Here is my xaml setting :

 <s:SciStockChart.XAxisStyle>
     <Style TargetType="s:CategoryDateTimeAxis">
         <Setter Property="VisibleRange" Value="{Binding ParentViewModel.XRange}" />
         <Setter Property="AutoRange" Value="{Binding ParentViewModel.AutoRangeX}"/>
     </Style>
 </s:SciStockChart.XAxisStyle>

And I also set, XRange = new IndexRange(0, 9), AutoRangeX = AutoRange.Never, but the chart show like image, always has gap there.

What should I do?

I am trying to use the Box plot type to render a gantt-style chart. The intention is to set the Median, lowerQuartile and Min all to the start time values, and the upperQuartile and Max to the End times.

The trouble, as I think I have found, is that the model doesn’t support DateTime as the type for the YAxis values. Using the Box Chart example in the demo suite for inspiration, I have two very stripped down charts on my page:

 <s:SciChartSurface x:Name="ganttChart" BorderThickness="0" Padding="0" Grid.Row="0">

I then populate them appropriately:

    private void MainWindow_Loaded(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
    {
        var ganttDataSeries = new BoxPlotDataSeries<double, DateTime>();
        var ganttData = GetGanttPlotData().ToArray();

        ganttSeries.DataSeries = ganttDataSeries;
        ganttDataSeries.Append(ganttData.Select(x => x.X),
                    ganttData.Select(x => x.Median),
                    ganttData.Select(x => x.Minimum),
                    ganttData.Select(x => x.LowerQuartile),
                    ganttData.Select(x => x.UpperQuartile),
                    ganttData.Select(x => x.Maximum));

        var boxData = GetBoxPlotData().ToArray(); // this is the same implementation as the demo 
        var boxDataSeries = new BoxPlotDataSeries<DateTime, double>();
        boxDataSeries.Append(boxData.Select(x => x.Date),
            boxData.Select(x => x.Median),
            boxData.Select(x => x.Minimum),
            boxData.Select(x => x.LowerQuartile),
            boxData.Select(x => x.UpperQuartile),
            boxData.Select(x => x.Maximum));

        boxSeries.DataSeries = boxDataSeries;
    }

    private IEnumerable<GanttPoint> GetGanttPlotData()
    {
        var xValues = Enumerable.Range(1, 10).ToArray();

        var random = new Random();

        for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++)
        {
            DateTime med = new DateTime(2016, 1, 1).AddDays(random.Next(31, 330));
            DateTime min = med.AddDays(-1 * random.Next(30));
            DateTime max = med.AddDays(random.Next(30));
            DateTime lower = min.AddDays((med - min).TotalDays * random.NextDouble());
            DateTime upper = max.AddDays(-1 * ((max - med).TotalDays * random.NextDouble()));

            Console.WriteLine($"Median:{med} Min:{min} Max:{max} Lower:{lower} Upper:{upper}");
            yield return new GanttPoint(xValues[i], min, lower, med, upper, max);
        }
    }

    private struct GanttPoint
    {
        public readonly double X;
        public readonly DateTime Minimum;
        public readonly DateTime LowerQuartile;
        public readonly DateTime Median;
        public readonly DateTime UpperQuartile;
        public readonly DateTime Maximum;

        public GanttPoint(double x, DateTime min, DateTime lower, DateTime med, DateTime upper, DateTime max)
            : this()
        {
            X = x;
            Minimum = min;
            LowerQuartile = lower;
            Median = med;
            UpperQuartile = upper;
            Maximum = max;
        }
    }

The attached image is what renders. Is there a reason for this behavior? I was really hoping to use this plot type to support the floating bars use case. I can make a custom renderable series to achieve the result, but that seems like a lot of work.

Please advise.

Thanks,
Mike.

I have created a 3D surface mesh successfully and now I want to plot a data series on the mesh. The inputs to the data series are 2D (X,Y) with the Z axis value always being directly on the mapped 3D surface point at the specified X,Y position.

I am trying to populate a XyzDataSeries3D() collection like so…

var xyzData = new XyzDataSeries3D();
xyzData.Append(x, y, z);

How to I determine the Z value given I have the X and Y values? Is there a built-in method for determining this or do I need to do it myself?

Thanks.
Gareth.

Hi – I have a scrolling sine wave and would like to put a numeric value at the high point of each peak. Is this possible? I’ve attached a pic of what I need. ty
