Latest Data Point Marker on Y Axis

[Tim Douglas]

Hi,

On a chart updating in real time is there a way to show the latest datapoint as a marker on a numerical Y axis?

E.g. if the latest datapoint had a value of 105 this should be shown on the Yaxis.  A example screenshot is attached, the newest datapoint is 2120 and this is clearly represented on the Y axis.

Thanks

Hi Tim,
Thank you for contacting Syncfusion support.
We can achieve your requirement using HorizontalLineAnnotation ShowAxisLabel property. When we set this property to true we can able the view the axis labels in y axis.As the chart is updating in real time the annotation Y1 value is updated dynamically as shown in the code snippet below.
Code Snippet:

[XAML]

<chart:SfChart.Annotations>

<chart:HorizontalLineAnnotation x:Name="annotation" ShowAxisLabel="True" ShowLine="False" ></chart:HorizontalLineAnnotation>

</chart:SfChart.Annotations>

[C#]

void timer_Tick(object sender, EventArgs e)

{

view.AddData();

value = (series.ItemsSource as ObservableCollection<Data>).Count;

annotation.Y1 = ((Chart.Series[0] as CandleSeries).ItemsSource as ObservableCollection<Data>)[value - 1].Value;

}

Please find the attached sample below for your reference.

Please let us know if you require any further assistance on this.
Thanks,

Thanks for the quick response Rachel, it's now working after using your example.

One slight issue - the annotation is appearing at the far right of the axis rather than to the left as it was in your example.  I've tried setting the HorizontalAlignment but it didn't have any effect.  Any ideas?

The xmla is below and an image is attached.

Thanks
