_shadingAppend values to the Surface Scrolling Grid Series.
The series type can contain between 1 and 2 different data sets (Y values and Intensity values). This same method is used for managing both types of data;
When addValues
is called, the parameter is wrapped in an object { }
, and one of (or both) yValues
and intensityValues
can be supplied.
// Example syntax,
surfaceScrollingGridSeries.addValues({
yValues: ...
intensityValues ...
})
The type of yValues
and intensityValues
is a number matrix. At first level, it is a list of samples to add.
yValues: [
// Sample 1,
// Sample 2
]
If both yValues
and intensityValues
are specified, then their length should be exactly same!
Order of sample data is selected when the series is created;
scrollDimension: 'columns'
->
yValues: [
[
0, // column = 0, row = 0
0, // column = 0, row = 1
0, // column = 0, row = n
],
[
0, // column = 1, row = 0
0, // column = 1, row = 1
0, // column = 1, row = n
],
]
scrollDimension: 'rows'
->
yValues: [
[
0, // row = 0, column = 0
0, // row = 0, column = 1
0, // row = 0, column = n
],
[
0, // row = 1, column = 0
0, // row = 1, column = 1
0, // row = 1, column = n
],
]
Example usage:
// Create X-scrolling surface series.
const scrollingSurfaceSeries = Chart3D.addSurfaceScrollingGridSeries({
scrollDimension: 'columns',
rows: 5,
columns: 50,
})
// Push two Y columns into the series.
scrollingSurfaceSeries.addValues({
yValues: [
[0, 0, 0, 0, 0],
[0, 10, 0, 20, 0]
]
})
addValues
can trigger warnings when used controversially (for example, data overflow).
In production applications, these can be controlled with warnings.
Object itself for fluent interface.

Set Color Shading Style for series.
Shading style changes the visual style of the rendering. See ColorShadingStyles for available shading styles.
Use Simple color shading style:
series3D.setShadingStyle(new ColorShadingStyles.Simple())
Use Phong color shading style:
series3D.setShadingStyle(new ColorShadingStyles.Phong())
Configuring specular highlight for Phong shading style:
series3D.setShadingStyle(new ColorShadingStyles.Phong({
specularReflection: 0.5,
specularColor: ColorRGBA(255, 255, 255)
}))

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 Surface Grid.
Supported fill styles:
Look-up dynamic per-CELL color based on a look up property and a color look up table (LUT).
SurfaceScrollingGridSeries3D
supports several different look-up modes:
lookUpProperty: 'value'
:
Color each CELL based on its INTENSITY value. Cell intensity values can be specified with addValues.
// Example, enable dynamic coloring based on cell intensity data.
surfaceGridSeries
.setFillStyle(new PalettedFill({
lookUpProperty: 'value',
lut: new LUT({
interpolate: true,
steps: [
{ value: 0, color: ColorRGBA(0, 0, 0) },
{ value: 100, color: ColorRGBA(255, 0, 0) }
]
})
}))
lookUpProperty: 'x' | 'y' | 'z'
:
Color each CELL based on one of its axis coordinates.
// Example, enable dynamic coloring based on cell Y coordinate.
surfaceGridSeries
.setFillStyle(new PalettedFill({
lookUpProperty: 'y',
lut: new LUT({
interpolate: true,
steps: [
{ value: 0, color: ColorRGBA(0, 0, 0) },
{ value: 100, color: ColorRGBA(255, 0, 0) }
]
})
}))
Intensity based dynamic coloring can further be configured with setIntensityInterpolation to enable or disable automatic interpolation of Intensity values. This is enabled by default.
Solid color for entire Surface Grid fill.
// Example, solid surface grid fill.
heatmapSeries.setFillStyle(new SolidFill({ color: ColorRGBA(255, 0, 0) }))
If only wireframe rendering is desired, using emptyFill
is recommended for better performance.
Disables Surface Grid fill.
// Example, hide heatmap fill and show wireframe.
heatmapSeries
.setFillStyle(emptyFill)
.setWireframeStyle(new SolidFill({ color: ColorRGBA(255, 0, 0) }))

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 surface intensity interpolation mode.
This only affects surface grid with INTENSITY based dynamic coloring, see setFillStyle for more information.
This feature is enabled by default ('bilinear'
).
'disabled'
or undefined
: Interpolation disabled; draw data exactly as it is.
'bilinear'
: Each PIXEL is colored based on an Bi-linearly interpolated intensity value based on the 4 closest real intensity values.
Object itself for fluent interface.
Surface intensity interpolation mode selection.
Set component mouse interactions enabled or disabled.
Disabling mouse interactions means that the objects below this component can be interacted through it.
Possible side-effects from disabling mouse interactions:
Object itself for fluent interface
Specifies state of mouse interactions
Sets the name of the Component updating attached LegendBox entries

Name of the Component
Set element visibility.
Object itself.
true
when element should be visible and false
when element should be hidden.
Set wireframe style of Surface Grid.
Wireframe consists of thin lines drawn around the borders of each surface CELL. They are generally enabled to improve the perception of surface shape.
Wireframe style is defined as LineStyle.
// Example 1, enable wireframe.
heatmapSeries.setWireframeStyle(new SolidLine({
thickness: 1,
fillStyle: new SolidFill({ color: ColorRGBA(255, 0, 0) })
}))
// Example 2, disable wireframe.
heatmapSeries.setWireframeStyle(emptyLine)
At this time, only solid wireframe rendering is supported. In future, this could be extended to coloring wireframe based on some dynamic properties (X, Y, Z, Intensity) similarly as surface fill.

Series for visualizing a 3D Surface Grid inside Chart3D, with API for pushing data in a scrolling manner (append new data on top of existing data).
The grid is defined by imagining a plane along X and Z axis, split to < COLUMNS > (cells along X axis) and < ROWS > (cells along Z axis)
The total amount of < CELLS > in a surface grid is calculated as
columns * rows
. Each < CELL > can be associated with DATA from an user data set.This series is optimized for massive amounts of data - here are some reference specs to give an idea:
Creating Surface Scrolling Grid Series:
SurfaceScrollingGridSeries3D
are created with addSurfaceScrollingGridSeries method.Some properties of
SurfaceScrollingGridSeries3D
can only be configured when it is created. Some of these arguments are optional, while some are required. They are all wrapped in a single object parameter:To learn about these properties, refer to SurfaceScrollingGridSeries3DOptions.
Frequently used methods:
SurfaceScrollingGridSeries3D
is designed for visualizing real-time data sources, where either new columns or rows are pushed in periodically.For visualizing 3D surface grid with static columns and rows amount, refer to SurfaceGridSeries3D.
