Roadmap

As of autumn 2026, following features/improvements are planned for LightningChart .NET library:

  • LightningChart will change the target framework: .NET Framework 4.8 and .NET 10.0.
  • Universal-Data-Parser a UserControl which can handle dashboard creation and data loading without single line of code.
  • Custom-colored lines will now render much faster with DirectX and also shown in vector format output.
  • Added support for paletted line with DataBreaking for DirectX9 engine.
  • DataCursor will work better with multi-colored lines.
  • DataCursor's ResultTable will support titles with multiple lines.
  • Improved rendering of thick semitransparent lines and new RemoveOverlapBetweenLineSegments property.
  • DigitalLineSeries will support LineSeriesCursor and DataCursor.
  • Improved XAxis' labels rendering with ScaleBreak.

  • Allow bar series 3D to be freely positioned in XZ plane.
  • Alternate 3D coordinate systems (XYZ vs ZXY or right-handed vs left-handed).
  • Positioning Axis 3D more freely (currently only on the edges of the 3D space).
  • Create option for 3D-world, where either YAxis is upwards (as now) or ZAxis is upwards.
  • Add option for completely hiding YAxis segments.
  • Built-in Toolbar for data review/exploration (with buttons like Zoom, Pan, Cursor, Range of Interest etc.).
  • Add option for user to control z-order of series rendering in ViewXY (between distinct types).
NOTE !

This is a rough roadmap for the next year or two. This is neither a complete list nor ordered by scheduled date. Priorities may change upon new requests from user or when users make library customization orders.
