Why first data is not displayed at right side on a DateTimeAxis realtime chart?

[Zhu]

Hi,

On a DateTimeAxis realtime chart, the most right side means the most new time, right?

But in your example, the first is displayed at most left, that looks a little weird to me.

As I think, it should be displayed in this way:

1. There's no data come, on x axis, timing marks is flowing from right to left in an appropriate speed, let's say 1 second/second, this should can be set by a property.
2. First data come, a point being displayed at most right side, then it flow to left with the timing marks.
3. Second data come, second point appears at most right side and now a line between 1st and 2nd point can be drawed, then they flow to left with the timing marks.
4. And so on.

I think this is a natual and better way to do the realtime display, hopefully you can consider to add it to your powerful SfCartesianChart widget.

Zhu

Hi， Lokesh,

I found this gif file from internet to explain, it's very like the add process of your realtime chart example.

Look the trace at the end of the gif file, imagine you move it to the right side of the display area, until fully invisible,

then, move it back slowly, so it enter the display area point by point, think the cross points are the data to come, then read my description:

1. There's no data come, on x axis, timing marks is flowing from right to left in an appropriate speed, let's say 1 second/second, this should can be set by a property.
2. First data come, a point being displayed at most right side, then it flow to left with the timing marks.
3. Second data come, second point appears at most right side and now a line between 1st and 2nd point can be drawed, then they flow to left with the timing marks.
4. And so on.

Hopefully, this can help you to understand what I mean.
