Push a Matrix of intensity values into the Heatmap grid. Each value describes one cell in the grid.
Order of data is selected when creating the series;
scrollDimension: 'columns' ->
[
[
0, // Intensity value column = 0, row = 0
0, // Intensity value column = 0, row = 1
0, // Intensity value column = 0, row = n
],
[
0, // Intensity value column = 1, row = 0
0, // Intensity value column = 1, row = 1
0, // Intensity value column = 1, row = n
],
]
scrollDimension: 'rows' ->
[
[
0, // Intensity value row = 0, column = 0
0, // Intensity value row = 0, column = 1
0, // Intensity value row = 0, column = n
],
[
0, // Intensity value row = 1, column = 0
0, // Intensity value row = 1, column = 1
0, // Intensity value row = 1, column = n
],
]
Example usage:
// Create x-scrolling intensity heatmap.
const series = ChartXY.addHeatmapScrollingGridSeries({
heatmapDataType: 'intensity',
scrollDimension: 'columns',
resolution: 5,
start: { x: 0, y: 0 },
step: { x: 1, y: 1 },
})
// Push a column into heatmap.
series.addIntensityValues([
[0, 10, 0, 20, 0]
])
invalidateIntensityValues can trigger warnings when used controversially.
In production applications, these can be controlled with warnings.

Set component highlight animations enabled or not. For most components this is enabled by default.
// Example usage, disable highlight animations.
component.setAnimationHighlight(false)
Object itself
Animation enabled?
Set whether series is taken into account with automatic scrolling and fitting of attached axes.
By default, this is true for all series.
By setting this to false, any series can be removed from axis scrolling/fitting.
// Example syntax, remove series from automatic scrolling / fitting.
LineSeries.setAutoScrollingEnabled(false)
Object itself for fluent interface.
true default, axes will take series into account in scrolling and fitting operations.
false, axes will ignore series boundaries.
Configure whether cursors should pick on this particular series or not.
// Example, prevent chart auto cursor from snapping to a series.
LineSeries.setCursorEnabled(false)
Related API:
Set cursor interpolation enabled.
If enabled, cursors will display bilinearly interpolated intensity values from the four closest heatmap cells to the mouse pointer. Otherwise, cursor will display the nearest actual data point supplied by user.

Boolean flag
Method for customizing contents of ResultTables when pointing at this Series.
HeatmapScrollingGridSeries.setCursorResultTableFormatter((builder, series, dataPoint) =>
builder
.addRow('Pointing at')
.addRow(`${dataPoint.x.toFixed(1)}, ${dataPoint.y.toFixed(1)}`)
.addRow(`= ${dataPoint.intensity.toFixed(1)}`),
)
Default Axis formatting can be referenced by using formatValue method.
Object itself
Function which builds ResultTable content. See definition of HeatmapSeriesFormatterIntensity for supplied formatting information.
Disable automatic data cleaning.
// Example syntax, disable data cleaning.
series.setDataCleaning(undefined)
Object itself for fluent interface.
Data cleaning configuration.
Enable automatic data cleaning by minDataPointCount configuration.
Specifying minDataPointCount enables lazy cleaning of data that is outside view as long as the remaining data amount doesn't go below the configured threshold.
// Example syntax for specifying minDataPointCount
series.setDataCleaning({ minDataPointCount: 10000 })
Usage of minDataPointCount is recommended in most common applications that require automatic data cleaning.
The actual value is often not very particular, just setting it above 0 to enable it is usually enough (lazy data cleaning of out of view data).
// Example, enable lazy data cleaning of out of view data.
series.setDataCleaning({ minDataPointCount: 1 })
Object itself for fluent interface.
Data cleaning configuration.
Enable automatic data cleaning by maxDataPointCount configuration.
Specifying maxDataPointCount results in data cleaning always happening exactly when total data amount exceeds the supplied threshold.
// Example syntax for specifying maxDataPointCount
series.setDataCleaning({ maxDataPointCount: 10000 })
maxDataPointCount is usually used in memory limited applications to prevent running out of memory.
maxDataPointCount is currently only supported by only select series:
If the feature receives good support and usage from the user base, it might be expanded to all series types in a future release.
Object itself for fluent interface.
Data cleaning configuration.
Configure draw order of the series.
The drawing order of series inside same chart can be configured by configuring their seriesDrawOrderIndex.
This is a simple number that indicates which series is drawn first, and which last.
The values can be any JS number, even a decimal. Higher number results in series being drawn closer to the top.
By default, each series is assigned a running counter starting from 0 and increasing by 1 for each series.
// Example, create 2 series and configure them to be drawn in reverse order.
const series1 = ChartXY.addLineSeries()
.setDrawOrder({ seriesDrawOrderIndex: 1 })
const series2 = ChartXY.addLineSeries()
.setDrawOrder({ seriesDrawOrderIndex: 0 })
// Example, ensure a series is drawn above other series.
SeriesXY.setDrawOrder({ seriesDrawOrderIndex: 1000 })
Object itself.
Object with seriesDrawOrderIndex property.
Set theme effect enabled on component or disabled.
A theme can specify an Effect to add extra visual oomph to chart applications, like Glow effects around data or other components.
Whether this effect is drawn above a particular component can be configured using the setEffect method.
// Example, disable theme effect from a particular component.
Component.setEffect(false)
For the most part, theme effects are enabled by default on most components.
Theme effect is configured with effect property.
Object itself.
Theme effect enabled
Set fill style of heatmap series.
Supported fill styles:
PalettedFill:
Colors heatmap fill by looking color up from LUT based on heatmap intensity values.
// Example, color look up by intensity values.
heatmapSeries.setFillStyle(
new PalettedFill({
lut: new LUT({
steps: [
{ value: 0, color: ColorCSS('red') },
{ value: 20, color: ColorCSS('blue') },
],
interpolate: true,
}),
}),
)
Intensity values are defined when data is pushed in with addIntensityValues method.
SolidFill:Solid color for all heatmap cells. Supported for debugging purposes mainly.
emptyFill:
Disables heatmap fill.
// Example, hide heatmap fill and show wireframe.
heatmapSeries
.setFillStyle(emptyFill)
.setWireframeStyle(new SolidFill({ color: ColorRGBA(255, 0, 0) }))
Object itself for fluent interface.
FillStyle object or function which modifies current value.
Set state of component highlighting.
// Example usage
component.setHighlight(true)
component.setHighlight(0.5)
If highlight animations are enabled (which is true by default), the transition will be animated. As long as the component is highlighted, the active highlight intensity will be animated continuously between 0 and the configured value. Highlight animations can be disabled with setAnimationHighlight
Object itself
Boolean or number between 0 and 1, where 1 is fully highlighted.
Set highlight on mouse hover enabled or disabled.
Mouse interactions have to be enabled on the component for this to function as expected. See setMouseInteractions for more information.
Object itself for fluent interface.
True if highlighting on mouse hover, false if no highlight on mouse hover
Set component mouse interactions enabled or disabled.
Disabling mouse interactions means that the objects below this component can be interacted through it.

thickness: 1,
fillStyle: new SolidFill({ color: ColorRGBA(255, 0, 0, 255) })
}))
Series itself for fluent interface.
Either a LineStyle object or a function, which will be used to create a new LineStyle based on current value.
Series class for visualizing a Heatmap Grid, with API for pushing data in a scrolling manner (append new data on top of existing data).
HeatmapScrollingGridSeriesIntensityValuesis optimized for massive amounts of data - here are some reference specs on average PC to give an idea:rows: 2048, 1000 columns/s) runs consistently and smoothly with 60 FPS and no stuttering. CPU usage stays easily below 40%.rows: 4096, 2000 columns/s) runs consistently and smoothly with 60 FPS and minor stuttering.HeatmapScrollingGridSeriesIntensityValuesmax data amount is entirely restricted by the client hardware RAM and more specifically amount of RAM usable by the context running LightningChart JS. If performance suddenly plummets at some approximate data threshold, then it is likely that there is not enough RAM available. Use data cleaning configuration and suitable Axis intervals to adjust to your hardware limitations.Each cell of the heatmap grid is associated with a numeric intensity value, which can be used in conjuction with a Color look up table (LUT).
