DxChartAxis<T>.VisualRangeUpdateMode Property

Specifies how the axis visual range should behave if new points are added to the data source.

Namespace : DevExpress.Blazor

Assembly : DevExpress.Blazor.v25.2.dll

NuGet Package : DevExpress.Blazor

Declaration

csharp
[DefaultValue(ChartVisualRangeUpdateMode.Auto)]
[Parameter]
public ChartVisualRangeUpdateMode VisualRangeUpdateMode { get; set; }

Property Value

TypeDefaultDescription
ChartVisualRangeUpdateModeAuto

An enumeration value.

|

Available values:

NameDescription
Shift

The visual range matches the data range or whole axis length if DxChartAxisRange is defined. Applies to the argument axis only.

| | Reset |

The visual range matches the data range.

| | Keep |

The visual range does not change.

| | Auto |

The range update behavior depends on both the axis type and its visual range. For a detailed explanation of this calculation, refer to the Automatic Range Calculation section.

Remarks

Use the VisualRangeUpdateMode property to specify how the visual range should behave if new points are added to the data source.

The following code snippet sets the visual range of the argument axis and shifts the range when a new data item is added:

razor
<DxButton Text="Add a new day"
          Click="(e) => GenerateNewItem()">
</DxButton>

<DxChart Data="@DataList" @ref="Chart">
    <DxChartLineSeries T="DailyData" 
                       TArgument="DateTime" 
                       TValue="int"
                       ArgumentField="@(s => s.Date)" 
                       ValueField="@(s => s.Value)" />
    <DxChartArgumentAxis VisualRangeUpdateMode="ChartVisualRangeUpdateMode.Shift">
          <DxChartAxisRange StartValue="new DateTime(2020, 05, 14)"
                            EndValue="new DateTime(2020, 05, 20)" />
    </DxChartArgumentAxis>
    <DxChartLegend Visible="false" />
</DxChart>

@code {
    int DaysNum { get; set; } = 0;
    DxChart<DailyData> Chart;
    static readonly Random random = new Random();

    protected override void OnInitialized() {
        DataList = GetData();
    }

    void GenerateNewItem() {
        DataList.Add(new DailyData() {
            Date = new DateTime(2020, 05, 20).AddDays(++DaysNum),
            Value = random.Next(10, 20)
        });
        Chart.RefreshData();
    }
}
csharp
public class DailyData {
    public DateTime Date { get; set; }
    public int Value { get; set; }
}
public List<DailyData> DataList;
public List<DailyData> GetData() {
    DataList = new List<DailyData>();
    DataList.Add(new DailyData() { Date = new DateTime(2020, 05, 12), Value = 22 });
    DataList.Add(new DailyData() { Date = new DateTime(2020, 05, 13), Value = 18 });
    DataList.Add(new DailyData() { Date = new DateTime(2020, 05, 14), Value = 19 });
    DataList.Add(new DailyData() { Date = new DateTime(2020, 05, 15), Value = 14 });
    DataList.Add(new DailyData() { Date = new DateTime(2020, 05, 16), Value = 15 });
    DataList.Add(new DailyData() { Date = new DateTime(2020, 05, 17), Value = 18 });
    DataList.Add(new DailyData() { Date = new DateTime(2020, 05, 18), Value = 24 });
    DataList.Add(new DailyData() { Date = new DateTime(2020, 05, 19), Value = 21 });
    DataList.Add(new DailyData() { Date = new DateTime(2020, 05, 20), Value = 20 });
    return DataList;
}

Automatic Range Calculation

When the VisualRangeUpdateMode property is set to ChartVisualRangeUpdateMode.Auto, the axis type determines how the visual range is calculated when chart data is updated.

Argument axis:

  • If the visual range is not set, the ChartVisualRangeUpdateMode.Auto is interpreted as ChartVisualRangeUpdateMode.Reset.
  • If only StartValue of the visual range is set, the ChartVisualRangeUpdateMode.Auto is interpreted as ChartVisualRangeUpdateMode.Shift.
  • If the EndValue of the visual range is set, the ChartVisualRangeUpdateMode.Auto is interpreted as ChartVisualRangeUpdateMode.Keep.

Value axis:

The ChartVisualRangeUpdateMode.Auto value inherits its behavior from the VisualRangeUpdateMode of the argument axis.

  • When the VisualRangeUpdateMode of the argument axis is ChartVisualRangeUpdateMode.Reset or ChartVisualRangeUpdateMode.Shift, the ChartVisualRangeUpdateMode.Auto is interpreted as ChartVisualRangeUpdateMode.Reset.
  • When the VisualRangeUpdateMode of the argument axis is ChartVisualRangeUpdateMode.Keep, the ChartVisualRangeUpdateMode.Auto is interpreted as ChartVisualRangeUpdateMode.Keep.

Tip

To freeze the visual range of the chart, set the VisualRangeUpdateMode of both axes to ChartVisualRangeUpdateMode.Keep.
