Configuration

  1. Insert the file "SPIN. ActionNet.View.Wpf.Charts.dll" in the WpfControls folder of the installation (typically under "C:\Program Files (x86)\SPIN\Action.Net\an-x.x\WpfControls\") if it does not exist.

Where:

tagName: refers to the search tag. This parameter is used for the Header of the chart.

histValues: refers to a table whose format consists of the first column with values compatible with the type DateTime and the second column with values compatible with the types float or Double.

This function can be called as shown below:

Attention: It is extremely important that the table follows the expected format with two columns, namely:

  • First column with values compatible with type DateTime; and

  • Second column with values compatible with types float or Double.

Tables that do not support this format can have unexpected consequences for the chart.

This sample-specific application used the Spin toolkit to search for measures for a given period (last 10 days). The full code for this application can be checked below:
