I am new to core plot SDK, implemented core plot in my app. i need to restrict -ve part of graph. i.e always i will have +ve values for graph((1,1),(10,15),(20,15)).i need horizontal , vertical scrolling for +ve part only.So i want to restrict remaining 3 parts of graph. I tried in all ways help less, so posted here. if any one already done with this type requirement, please help me ASAP.
Thanks in advance.
The easiest way to restrict the scrolling ranges is to set the globalXRange and globalYRange properties on your plot space. If you want more control, you can use a plot space delegate. CPTestApp (the Mac version) demonstrates both techniques.

In Marks, click Size and there pops a slider where I can adjust the size of a shape. But how to accurately control the size, is there some property with numbers to accurately control it? I have two sheets to show something similar and I want to display exactly the same sized shapes.
If you want to ensure 'sizes' are the same across two worksheets, I'd suggest snapping the 'size' setting to the center on both, as this is the easiest option to select. You can then use a measure to set the size, if this is desirable, and then the difference in size will be relative on both worksheets.
There isn't a numerical value override for the size slider.
Ben is correct, there isn't yet a numerical value override for the slider. You can use parameters with Min/Max/Sum etc. and a variable to somewhat change the sizes but they have to have multiple entries per line. It is unfortunate that Tableau still doesn't get that people want both a 'relative' sizing system that uses numbers from the dataset and a 'static' sizing system that allows for shapes to be set to '11px' or something along those lines. Yes, you can control that kind of in the dashboard with a vertical and fill entire box etc; but that doesn't address the very real scenario where you want a user to be able to re-size on the fly. Just my two cents.
I ran into this today. Very annoying. Need to keep shapes the same size across all worksheets and therefore same on dashboard.
I try to auto scale the y-axis for an LineChart. If I set the option autoScaleMinMaxEnabled, followed by an notifyDataSetChanged no auto scale occurs.
Also toggeling autoScaleMinMaxEnabled in ChartsDemo seems not to work. Is there a special trick?
Many thanks! - Tino
The "trick" is that min/max of the Y-axis is determined dynamically, during scrolling, depending on the y-values that are contained in the visible x-range.
If you want to see it working in the demo, then zoom in, enable autoScaleMinMaxEnabled, and then scroll to the right. Watch the Y-axis.
I have drown several graphs thanks to "subplot" function on MatLab and it works well.
Nevertheless, I want all my graphs to have the same Y-scale so that I can compare them.
I used the "linkaxes" function and my all my graphs have the same scale but the problem is that some of my figures are "beheaded", lacking their upper part, or one of my figures is completely squeezed.
I don't get what happened. Could you please help me to solve the problem or tell me about another function that would be more appropriate in my case?
Here's part of my code:
for i=1:1:9
m=n(i);
fichier=sprintf('%d.txt',m);
M=load(fichier);
z=length(M(:,1));
x=M(1:z,1);
y=M(1:z,2);
a(i)=subplot(2,4,i)
contour3=plot(x,y)
linkaxes(a,'y')
end
linkaxes creates a permanent link between the scales of several axes, so that you can subsequently perform zoom operations (perhaps interactively) on one, and have the other automatically update.
If you need that functionality, then linkaxes is the right command (although you could possibly also look at linkprops).
However if all you need is to ensure that the y-axis limits of your axes are the same, it will probably be easier (and you will have more control) if you set them directly. You can retrieve the y-axis limits using ylim(axis_handle) and set them using ylim(axis_handle, [lower, upper]), or alternatively with get(axis_handle,'YLim') and set(axis_handle,'YLim',[lower,upper]). You might also look at the YLimMode property of the axis, which determines whether the axis limits are directly set or automatically resized.
I want to display overlapping boxplots using Sigmaplot 12. When I choose the scale for the x-axis as linear then the boxes do indeed overlap but are much too thin. See figure below. Of course they should be much wider.
When I choose the scale of the x-axis to be "category", then the boxes have the right width, but are arranged along each single x-value.
I want the position as in figure 1 and the width as in figure 2. I tried to resize the box in figure 1 but when I choose 100% in "bar width" than it still looks like Figure 1.
many thanks!
okay, I found the answer myself. In Sigmaplot, there is often the need to prepare "style"-columns, for example if you want to color your barcharts, you need a column that holds the specific color names.
For my boxplot example I needed a column that has the values for "width". These had to be quite large (2000) in order to have an effect. Why ? I have no idea. First I thought it would be because of the latitude values and that the program interprets the point as "1.000"s, but when I changed to values without decimals, it didn´t get better.
Well, here is the result in color.
Have fun !
I want to use core-plot for drawing line graph dynamically. data won't come at a time, we will be receiving point by point dynamically.
Is it possible to draw the chart dynamically using core-plot i.e drawing point by point as on when we receive the (x,y) point?
Please help me, Thanks.
Yes, you can do this reasonably easily. For each received data point, append it to an array of values to display. As these data points come in, call -reloadData on the Core Plot graph (or just the particular plot) to redraw the graph, passing in the array you just added a value to in response to the -numbersForPlot:field:recordIndexRange: delegate method.
If you need to adjust the plot range to track your data points (for a moving ticker), recalculate the new CPPlotRange for the X axis and set the plot space's xRange property to that.
Use the CPTestApp-iPhone, AAPLot, or StockPlot examples as templates for how to set up the line chart overall, and modify from that starting point.
I do something similar to this on the Mac in a scientific application:

Sounds like you could make use of a demo project I put together and wrote about here (not core plot related though).
It draws a EKG graph but should easily be modified to use another input than the repeated "heart beat"...See line 320 in EAGLView.m where the indata is entered into the array.
