Hello All,

Is there a way to have a cursor modifier display on a mouse left/center/right click instead of automatically showing when the mouse is over the chart? I tried setting the ExecuteOn property but had no effect.

Thanks in advance,
Sergio.

Hi,

The axis labels are not always showing when zoomed in/out.
Is there a way/workaround to persist the end labels and also make it editable?

Please see attached pic

Thanks

Hi SciChart team,

first of all I want to say that I still think SciChart is great! However, I am quite frustrated at the moment. In small applications, the chart and its annotations work very well (yes “Annotations are Easy!”), but in large industrial applications with many views and millions of lines of code, there are from time to time difficult complications with the chart. This is also the case now with the Annotation Creation Modifier. As far as I can see, the AnnotationCreationModifier.OnModifierMouseUp method uses the annotation’s IsSelected state to determine whether to create a new annotation or complete one. With custom composite annotation it can happen that a mouse click first selects the annotation and only then AnnotationCreationModifier.OnModifierMouseUp is called (see attached screenshots).
Sometimes it works, sometimes it doesn’t, depending on where the mouse is.
The AnnotationCreationModifier should not use the annotation’s IsSelected state to complete its internal “edit mode” and call “OnAnnotationCreated”.
Or is there already a solution for this?

regards,
Tobias

Currently, I am creating a line chart and appending a lot of fetched data to the data series. The problem is that I have to recreate the chart when I move to another page that is using the same chart from the previous page. Therefore, I have to fetch the data and append it to the chart data series again.

Is there any way to reuse the chart itself without recreating the whole chart on another page?

Hi, I’m struggling to reduce times for loading draw (5,000Series x 5,000points) x 10 charts
which is in Scichart example ‘Load 500Seriesx500points’.

1. Present, Loading (5,000Series x 5,000points) x 10 charts consumes about 1 minutes.
   How can i load and draw this more faster?

2. And While in loading, how can i generate and show a Progress bar?

I am using a axis line chart from the js scichart. I want to change the font size of a legend. How do I change the font size of a legend?

I wanted to experiment with adding a tooltip to the SciChart_ScatterChartPerformanceDemo.

I extended the xaml with

 <s:SciChartSurface.ChartModifier>
            <s:ModifierGroup>
                <s:MouseWheelZoomModifier/>
                <s:TooltipModifier />
            </s:ModifierGroup>
        </s:SciChartSurface.ChartModifier>

However, I have noticed that the tooltip doesn’t seem to react properly to the geometry under the cursor. The tooltip will often show up when the cursor is outside the geometry.

If you use a SquarePointMarker with a width and height of 25, the tooltip pops up even when you’re a fair distance away from the geometry.

The hit detection doesn’t appear to be working correctly?

Edit : Also, it appears I am unable to answer questions here, when I add an answer, it accepts it, but doesn’t show anything?

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’m overriding FastLineRenderableSeries so I can do some custom rendering.

I have a data series defined as :

 var xyDataSeries = new XyDataSeries<double>();
            xyDataSeries.Append(0, 0);
            xyDataSeries.Append(1, 1);
Test.DataSeries = xyDataSeries;

and my chart as :

<s:SciChartSurface Loaded="SciChartSurface_Loaded">
        <s:SciChartSurface.RenderableSeries>
            <customSeriesMvvmExample:FastLineRenderableSeriesEx x:Name="Test" />
        </s:SciChartSurface.RenderableSeries>
        <s:SciChartSurface.XAxis>
            <s:NumericAxis/>
        </s:SciChartSurface.XAxis>
        <s:SciChartSurface.YAxis>
            <s:NumericAxis/>
        </s:SciChartSurface.YAxis>
    </s:SciChartSurface>

And then I override InternalDraw :

public class FastLineRenderableSeriesEx : FastLineRenderableSeries
{
    protected override void InternalDraw(IRenderContext2D renderContext, IRenderPassData renderPassData)
    {
        base.InternalDraw(renderContext, renderPassData);

        using (var brush = renderContext.CreateBrush(Colors.Transparent))
        using (var pen = renderContext.CreatePen(Stroke, true, StrokeThickness, Opacity))
        {

            var xCalc = renderPassData.XCoordinateCalculator;
            var yCalc = renderPassData.YCoordinateCalculator;

            var xCoord = xCalc.GetCoordinate(0.5);
            var yCoord = yCalc.GetCoordinate(0.5);

            renderContext.DrawEllipse(pen, brush, new System.Windows.Point(xCoord, yCoord), 150, 150);

            renderContext.DrawLine(pen, 
                new System.Windows.Point(xCalc.GetCoordinate(0.6), yCalc.GetCoordinate(0)),
                new System.Windows.Point(xCalc.GetCoordinate(2), yCalc.GetCoordinate(1.4)));
        }
    }
}

The problem is that the base.InternalDraw draws the original data series line very nicely with anti-aliasing, but the custom circle I draw has no AA, and the custom line I draw looks very thin?

what’s going on here?

I am facing the following two issues related to application crash and unable to perform 3d object rotation in release mode.

Issue 1: Application Crash
I am using PointLineRenderableSeries3D object to render the Data series points.
I have a timer which ticks every 1 sec and have new data series points with some rotation of previous values.
Hence will try to add new points on every 1 sec to the same object data series

timer1.tick +=(() => {
// rendererUpdate is object of PointLineRenderableSeries3D

        using (rendererUpdate.DataSeries.SuspendUpdates()) 
            {
              var newData = GetNewPointsWithRotation( rendererUpdate.DataSeries, 30);//30 is angle of rotation for older points
                rendererUpdate.DataSeries = newData;
            }

}

Issue 2: When i run the application in release mode, i am unable to perform manual rotation using mouse dragging for the 3d sphere FreeSurfaceRenderableSeries3D object SurfaceMesh referred in the code.
When the application is running in release mode , i tried to drag rotate the 3d shape, but the 3d object is not responding to the mouse drag event (Press hold mouse left button and drag).

Please suggest the possible reasons and fixes of the same.
Please provide the possible insights of the same.

Is there any option to hide any axis panel (side wall of the y-axis) in SciChart3D? want to hide the wall marked in red in the image.

I used NPM to complete the deployment and development validation of SCICHART JS, and I completed the demo as follows:

At present, I have two unresolved issues that we will make a purchase decision after they are resolved:
1、How to set the sampling rate for chart?
Using the wpf control, the sampling rate can be set through the “FifoCapacity” property of XyDataSeries, but I did not find this property in the JS control.

2、How to hide the preview of the SciChartOverview control?

       I don't want to display the data of the bound chart

Hi Andrew,

I have 2 independent questions,

Q1.
I have been working with uniform heatmap and I need a way to fix the aspect ratio to 1, for all resize, zoom events, is there an option in heatmap to fix an aspect ration? Please see the attached video
https://youtu.be/obhH6KLExYw

Q2.
I am trying to implement a lasso select method to select and highlight the heatmap data. I did not find lasso select in the documentation hence I went ahead and implemented my own method.

I am drawing an svg using D3 (offsetX and offsetY variables) and then adding it to the annotation as you will see in the video and trying to get all the hitTest data inside the lasso.

If I use the customAnnotation then heatmap is able to draw correct size and location of the SVG
customAnnotation:
https://youtu.be/gL34sAbxYSE

But it does not pan and zoom with the plot data. after looking through documentation I came across OverviewCustomResizableAnnotation which seems designed for zooming and panning with the data.

But while using the OverviewCustomResizableAnnotation the SVG size keeps changing during the update and is not located at the correct location relative to the data.

sciChartSurfaceRef.current.annotations.add(
new OverviewCustomResizableAnnotation({
id: "lassoSVG",
x1: shortestXinData,
y1: shortestYinData,
isEditable: false,
isSelected: false,
yCoordinateMode: ECoordinateMode.DataValue,
xCoordinateMode: ECoordinateMode.DataValue,
verticalAnchorPoint: EVerticalAnchorPoint.Top,
horizontalAnchorPoint: EHorizontalAnchorPoint.Left,
svgString: new XMLSerializer().serializeToString(svg.node())
})
)

Hi,

Is there any way to create a multipane chart in WPF like it done using Sub-Charts API in JavaScript chart where it shares same WebGL chart surface.

I know the way it is done using SciChartGroup where there are multiple SciChartSurfaces added to the group in order to create multipane chart, but if it can be done the way it is done in JavaScript charts, it will improve WPF chart performance drastically I think.

Chandra

Hello All,

I was trying to set the visual range property on a numeric axis but i get the error that the “equals” is not a function of NumerixAxis. This happens when i try the following.

export function setXAxisVisibleRange(element, visibleRange) {
     const { sciChartSurface } = resolveContext(element);
     var axis = sciChartSurface.xAxes.get(0);
     axis.visibleRange = visibleRange; **//error here**
}

attached is a picture of a more detailed error. Ultimately what I am trying to do is to sync up the visual range of two charts x axis like in the following tutorial

https://www.scichart.com/documentation/js/current/webframe.html#Tutorial%2009%20-%20Linking%20Multiple%20Charts.html

Thanks for your help in advance.

UPDATE

So my issue was that I had a serialization issue with the NumberRange class. I can now sync up the charts just like in the tutorial. The problem now is that if I scroll or zoom very fast eventually the charts start to flicker in an endless loop. Has anyone ever seen this behavior? One thing I notice is that the min and max value have over 10 decimal points.

Here is a quick printout of the value change events between the two charts when the flickering starts.

Any ideas?

Hello. I noticed that a canvas appears in the DOM tree, which completely duplicates the main chart, but it is set to display: none.

can i ask what it is used for? does it affect performance? and can i remove it?

I would like to modify the XYZ Gizmo in XAML, but I can’t figure out how. What would this code look like?

Can SciChart be used in Qt? If so, is there a demo available for reference, or can you provide guidance on how to use it?

Hi,

We use SciChart extensively in our WPF applications and make use of CustomRenderableSeries, writing all kinds of different lines and bitmaps directly to the IRenderContext2D depending on the point metadata.

We’re now looking at doing something similar in JavaScript, but can’t find any examples of this kind of customisation in the documentation. In the JavaScript library, is it possible to draw directly to a ‘canvas’ in the same way as in the WPF version? If so, could you please point to an example?

Many thanks,

Graham.

Hello,

I am developing a finance application and I am using AnimatingLineChart for it. I want prices like tickLine to be displayed instantly on this screen. But I’m having 2 problems while developing.

1- As I have included in the screenshot, the price movement seems to be in a straight line because the y-axis ranges are too much. I want to reduce the range here and show the price action in a healthier way. In the screenshot, the blue color is the graph drawn by the line graph, and the red color is the graph I want to draw. I create a very low range when determining the range, but this is not reflected in the chart. I am attaching the code I used below;

final NumericAxis yAxis = sciChartBuilder.newNumericAxis()
.withVisibleRange(new DoubleRange(1.095, 1.096))
.withGrowBy(new DoubleRange(0.1d, 0.1d))
.build();

2- Can I do this without entering a min and max value for Y axis while using this chart type? I want to create a structure in which it will dynamically determine the max and min values according to the price data it receives.

Do you have any suggestions for improving these or a better graphic type for it?

Thank you and have nice work.

I have a real time updated chart with very large data size and I am facing the slow client problem. i.e. The data sending speed is faster than the data receiving and handling speed which causes memory growing up issue. I am trying to use Web Workers to increase the data handling speed in frontend. I have found a related post:

https://www.scichart.com/questions/wpf/is-xydataseries-safe-to-being-changed-in-a-separate-thread

It seems possible to update XyDataSeries in the background thread with WPF. My UI is built with NextJS. I tried to use Web Workers to implement multiple threads. But I found that it can’t pass the SciChartSurface or XyDataSeries to the worker thread. Could you show me an example on how to update XyDataSeries in the worker thread with Web Workers?

Hi Scichart Team,

I want to add two border lines on the top and left of the chart on the existing theme —“BrightSpark”, I searched and tried some IThemeProvider memebers but have no luck to solve it.

Please find the detail in attached pic, just like bottom and right sides, add two border lines on the other two sides.

Hello Scichart Team,

Can you guys provide me with some guidance to implement a custom IRenderableSeriesViewModel implementation that is supported in MVVM binding in Scichartsurface? Specifically, I’m looking to create a chart series that can be bound to my ViewModel and support custom styling and data handling.

I have tried following the tutorial found here…

Worked Example – CustomRenderableSeries in MVVM
https://www.scichart.com/documentation/win/current/webframe.html#Worked%20Example%20-%20CustomRenderableSeries%20in%20MVVM.html

I was getting a cast error from scicharts. I have attached the picture showing the detailed error.
Concerning the XAML code I have tried both the normal Binding keyword and s:SeriesBinding keyword to the RenderableSeries in the SciChartSurface.

Let me know how to go about this!
