Example

This example shows how to create a Swift Point chart and configure its axes, legend, and appearance at runtime.

Follow the steps below to create a sample Swift Point chart:

• Add a chart to the project.
• Create a series and add it to the chart.
• Call the Series.BindToData method to bind the series to a data source, and define data members that contain arguments and values.
• Use the SwiftPointSeriesView.PointMarkerOptions property to access series view marker settings, and configure the marker size and type.
• Enable scrolling and zooming capabilities for x- and y-axes.
• Specify axis ranges to limit visible data.
• Define the legend position.
