LineSeries - Interpolated Points

Hello guys!

For my application I need the all points of a Line Series ... let me explain better:

Suppose I give two points to my Line Series, (0,0) and (10,10), OxyPlot will automatically plot the points between this two points.

It´s possible that I get this point list (the interpolated ones) ? For me will be nice, otherwise I will has to add a interpolate algorithm just to calculate then ....

Thx all

The smoothed points is a private member of the LineSeries class. I don't want to expose this.
You find the algorithm for the canonical splines in CanonicalSplineHelper.cs

Can you try to replace the OxyPlot control with a Canvas, and check the mouse locations reported there - to rule out if the problem is with your panel/container.

Rendering performance when plotting multi lineseries with high fps

sunwayking wrote at 2013-06-16 04:47:

In my project, there are 500 groups of data per second, each group contains 5000 points( type is double). I let plotter control to render 25 groups of data per frame, and render them 20 times(500/25) in one second. Any idea to improve the rendering performance?

PS. OxyPlot is used in WPF 4.5
Program is running on my IBM Server(8 CPU cores, 16GB Memory)

objo wrote at 2013-06-18 12:48:

See https://oxyplot.codeplex.com/wikipage?title=Performance&referringTitle=Documentation
Turn off markers, axis grid lines, smoothing. Do not use ItemsSource (binding is slow).

125000 points at 20fps is probably at the limit of what is possible with WPF shapes (I tested the same number of points in the WpfExamples/RealtimeDemo)
Creating a rendering context for WPF using WriteableBitmap or DirectX could be a solution to achieve higher frame rates...

Color saturation in Oxyplot Column Series

guilhermecgs wrote at 2014-03-15 14:35:

Hi,

I want to generate a Column Series plot with light colors. I think the automatic color generator of Oxyplot generates colors too saturated and dark. Is there a way to define some parameters in order to to that, without the need to define the color manually for each ColumnSeries?

Below, on page 5, is a example of the type of color saturation I would like to have.

TEXT

objo wrote at 2014-03-19 16:20:

That's a good link, maybe we should change the default colors?
You can change the PlotModel.DefaultColors, I added an example.
There may be a bug with the ColumnSeries, it seems not to update properly.

objo wrote at 2014-03-19 22:38:

The bug in ColumnSeries should be fixed. I added a few more examples. Was inspired by colorbrewer2.org :-)

Exporting plotmodel to xml file

Hello!

I would like to know how can I export details of the plotmodel (like axis collection, lineseries collection with its configuration like color gridlines etc and the data/datapoint collection)  to a xml file.

I tried using xml serialization but since plotmodel uses generics and dictionaries thus unable to do so.

Could you please help ?

 

 Thanks!

Meenakshi


objo wrote at 2012-11-06 19:44:

I think this should be covered by http://oxyplot.codeplex.com/workitem/9986

But I don't recommend serializing the PlotModel directly - I will not guarantee backwards compatibility in the future...

please help me track down this (WPF) zoom bug

brantheman wrote at 2012-06-05 19:37:

I'm trying to track down a zoom issue. Steps to repeat the issue:

1. Open the OxyPlot.Wpf solution.

2. Set the WpfExamples project as the startup project.

3. Modify WpfExamples.Examples.BarSeriesDemo.MainWindow.xaml.cs to look like this:

tmp.Axes.Add(new CategoryAxis { ItemsSource = Items, LabelField = "Label", AbsoluteMinimum = 0, AbsoluteMaximum = Items.Count, IsPanEnabled = true, IsZoomEnabled = true});tmp.Axes.Add(new LinearAxis(AxisPosition.Left) { MinimumPadding = 0, AbsoluteMinimum = 0, IsZoomEnabled = false, IsPanEnabled = false});

4. Fire up the BarSeries demo and zoom in and out. Give that mouse wheel a good strong spin and watch as you zoom to outer space, which wasn't expected given the axes' parameters noted above.

It's almost like the flip of a switch. I can even get it into a situation where a single click on the mouse wheel jumps the zoom/pan out of any viewable content.


objo wrote at 2012-06-19 12:41:

thanks for the bug report - will look into this later!


objo wrote at 2012-06-27 15:52:

I could not reproduce this. It works fine here.

I changed AbsoluteMinimum=-0.5 and AbsoluteMaximum=Items.Count-0.5 in order to get the CategoryAxis to look right (the AbsoluteMinimum/Maximum are not checked before the user tries to zoom/pan).

My code currently looks like this:

            tmp.Axes.Add(new CategoryAxis
            {
                ItemsSource = this.Items,
                LabelField = "Label",
                AbsoluteMinimum = -0.5,
                AbsoluteMaximum = this.Items.Count - 0.5,
                IsPanEnabled = true,
                IsZoomEnabled = true
            });

            tmp.Axes.Add(new LinearAxis(AxisPosition.Left)
                {
                    MinimumPadding = 0,
                    AbsoluteMinimum = 0,
                    IsZoomEnabled = false,
                    IsPanEnabled = false
                });

brantheman wrote at 2012-06-27 22:09:

This bug definitely still exists. I'm using a Microsoft mouse with a fairly recent version of Intellipoint. Normal mouse wheel behavior doesn't show the problem. You have to spin the wheel really fast for the problem to occur.


objo wrote at 2012-06-28 06:31:

Ok, I submitted a change that might help - can you verify? I still could not zoom fast enough to reproduce this error (I have an old Logitech G3 mouse with standard Windows 7 HID driver).

If it is still a problem, can you create a log of the Delta values from the MouseWheelEventArgs?


brantheman wrote at 2012-06-29 17:25:

Yes, that change fixes it. Thank you! As a second note, it appears that you're not setting the Handled property on the various mouse events for WPF when you use the event. Nor do you check it before using the event. Do you think that might help?

For the record, I did make a log of my delta values:

I'm trying to create a more natural logarithmic scale, much like the x axis on this graph..

http://openeeg.sourceforge.net/doc/modeeg/images/filter_delay_log.png

By setting the base to 2.718281828 I get this, but the intervals between the major ticks aren't right and the values that have been chosen are pretty random and I need them rounding to more meaningful values.

This is the output at the minute.

This is now a real sticking point in using this library in my application which would be a real shame as I've got some brilliant results so far.

If anyone can help me out then I can share some code then.

I don't understand completely your question, but at first glance: won't it be enough for you to set the Maximum/Minimum of the axis?

                LogarithmicAxis axis1 = new LogarithmicAxis();
                axis1.Position = AxisPosition.Bottom;
                axis1.Base = 8;
                axis1.MinorStep = 2;
                axis1.MinorGridlineStyle = LineStyle.Dot;
                axis1.MinorGridlineColor = OxyColors.LightGray.ChangeAlpha(20);
                axis1.Minimum = 0;
                axis1.Maximum = 32800;

                plotter.Model.Axes[0] = axis1;
                plotter.RefreshPlot(true);
Results:

Log2

Log8

Log10

I think you can't retrieve the label for minor ticks right now, correct if I'm wrong.

By the way: why would you set the base to "e"? Its logical to obtain "random" values (e^2, e^3...)

Handling massive series

moes_leco wrote at 2014-03-31 16:12:

We were using MVVM to handle series containing up to a couple million points and experienced a serious bottleneck (took over a couple minutes to render and crashed on resize due to out of memory exception). The main problems were that there were too many screen points trying to be rendered, the garbage collector was being stressed too much, and the plot model was recreated upon each render. I was able to do the following:
  • prevented boxing of data and screen points
  • added ability to decimate
  • added ability to append without re-rendering each series via a safe INotifyCollectionChanged supporting bulk addition
  • allows binding directly to data if using IList<IDataPoint>
  • avoids reflection and accessor functions when iterating through source data points
  • avoids unnecessary recalculation of max-mins
  • avoids redundant calculations in valid values
  • reuses intermediate memory for rendering (to avoid stressing 3rd generational memory)
  • avoids recreating model upon each render for MVVM
  • I'm sure there's more
I did all this via inheritance, so we could live happily along side your library. However, much of this would make more sense to be added to the original source. The decimation & data appendage might make sense to leave inside a derived LineSeries, though, since they depend on monotonic x values (automatically detected of course). This done in the PCL & I only have the WPF wrappers implemented.

Would you be interested in pulling some of this in?

objo wrote at 2014-03-31 18:32:

Yes, this is very interesting! Can you create a fork and submit each change separately? This will make it easier to review the changes.

Have you checked if the following changes could have a performance improvement
  • not performing the actual clipping, but depending on the rendering capability of the output device
  • clipping in a parallel loop

moes_leco wrote at 2014-04-08 19:21:

I have not tried deferring to the renderer for clipping or clipping in a parallel loop. I would wonder what the performance would be of creating a million point polyline even if most of those points aren't shown. If they are shown (axis is reset), then it might get tricky to do decimation depending on how much you defer to the renderer (zooming etc). I did try using a DrawingVisual instead of Polyline, but it didn't seem to make a difference. It may be because you override arrange.

I made the updates in https://hg.codeplex.com/forks/moes_leco/performance. I just ported my inheritance-based solution to one that would better fit into yours. I haven't tested the port. I do have unit tests for the Decimator, EnhancedObservableCollection, & EnhancedListCollectionView if you need, but did not add them. Really EnhancedObservableCollection & EnhancedListCollectionView may not belong in the project, but I added them so you could use to test appending without WPF misbehaving.

objo wrote at 2014-04-08 20:11:

thanks! I started looking at your improvements! There are lots of really good ideas, but I want to review carefully before pulling them into the default branch.

moes_leco wrote at 2014-04-08 20:31:

I really like the change from IDataPoint to DataPoint in the root! That was something I just have to work around in my original version that plays happy with the NuGet package. It really taxes the GC to have to create and maintain millions of little objects, so I just made sure it only happened once for each series view model.

objo wrote at 2014-04-11 07:28:

I have started pulling in your changes. Wow! You have done a great job! This made a huge improvement on performance.
I still need some time to review the last changes, I am hesitant to adding the observable pattern to the whole model...

Hi everyone,

with a couple of friends of mine we're starting one project of a Metro-style app and we're evaluating Oxyplot as our charting library.

But here we come to the problem: I've tried installing Oxyplot with NuGet, via Package Manager Console or manually adding the references, none of this methods worked.

The problems seems to be with metro project, because with wpf app I don't have this issue and everything works just fine.

Do you plan to add the support to Metro app?


So, let's recapitulate:
- VS 2012 Pro
- Win 8 RTM x64 eng
- Oxyplot 2012.3.127.1
- Metro project

I've actually attached a print screen of the failing setup as well as the output of the Package Manager Console.

Any help will be much appreciated, thanks

Yes, a Metro version is planned, and a NuGet package will be added when it is done! I will start testing on Windows 8 soon. See the fork http://oxyplot.codeplex.com/SourceControl/network/forks/elliatab/MetroFix, I plan to merge this into the main branch soon.

Is it possible to build a Metro project on Windows 7? Otherwise I need to move the build server to Windows 8 before I can create the nuget package automatically. The Oxyplot library will be PCL.

Hi objo,
thanks for your reply.

So, first, I think we can wait the release of Oxyplot for Metro. We have much work to do before plotting the results, so, no problem. I'm happy to know that you're working on.

Second, I'm not really sure if you can build a Metro app in Win 7. When developping for WP7 there was an emulator of the phone, I don't know if there is something similar. If I have some spare time, I'll try to install VS2012 on Win 7 and let you know what happen.

Well, it seems that you cannot create Metro project if running VS 2012 on Win 7...

Edit: this is how it looks like on Win 8

(I will create the project on a Windows 8 machine, so that should be ok)

But can Msbuild build Metro projects on a windows 7 machine? The following link looks promising :)
