Line Charts


TitleDescription
Simple Line ChartDemonstrates the basic steps in creating line charts.
Compact Line ChartExtends the Simple Line Chart example by decorating the chart using a number of chart formatting features.
3D Line ChartDemonstrates setting the line to 3D by using Layer.set3D.
Multi-Line Chart (1)Demonstrates a chart with multiple lines of different styles. Also demonstrates using frame with rounded corners, title with glass shading effect, both vertical and horizontal grid lines, and a legend at the top of the plot area.
Multi-Line Chart (2)Demonstrates a chart with multiple lines using date/time x coordinates for the data points (as opposed to using x-axis labels). Also demonstrates various methods to control the chart appearance.
Symbol Line ChartDemonstrates using symbols to represent data points, and putting data labels on top of the symbols.
Symbol Line Chart (2)Demonstrates using symbols to represent data points and using gradient color for plot area background.
Missing Data PointsDemonstrates various methods to representing missing data points. Also demonstrates automatic resizing of the plot area to fit the chart.
Uneven Data PointsDemonstrates data series that are unevenly spaced in the x dimension.
Spline Line ChartDemonstrates using spline curves to join data points, title with soft lighting effect, as well as a number of chart formatting techniques.
Step Line ChartDemonstrates joining data points with steps. Also demonstrates irregularly spaced data points on an auto-scaled true date/time axis.
Inter-Line ColoringDemonstrates filling the area between two lines or curves.
Line ComparisonDemonstrates filling the area between two lines or curves, as well as a number of advanced chart formatting techniques.
Line with Error SymbolsDemonstrates combining a line layer with a box-whisker layer to draw a line with error symbols.
Multi-Symbol Line ChartDemonstrates a line with different symbols for different data points. Also demonstrates unevenly spaced data points on an auto-scaled true date/time axis, and automatic resizing of the plot area to fit the chart.
Binary Data SeriesDemonstrates a chart representing binary data series.
Custom SymbolsDemonstrates loading external image files as data symbols by using DataSet.setDataSymbol2.
Rotated Line ChartDemonstrates swapping the x and y axes to produce a rotated line chart in which the line goes from top to bottom (instead of left to right).
Arbitrary XY Line ChartDemonstrates drawing a line chart with arbitrary x coordinates (not increasing or decreasing in one direction), and adding custom data labels to data points.
