Inconsistent behavior when using limits and new data points
estanglerbm opened this issue · 0 comments
Let's say that you have a chart with limits min/max = 'original', so that panning/zooming never exceeds the range of data points.
Then new data points arrive. (Like another day of data points with time x-axis, and we drop the oldest day of data points.)
-
In the initial chart display--or after a
resetZoom()
--when the new data points arrive, they get displayed. -
But if you're zoomed and/or panned, and new data points arrive, then you cannot visit the new data points (by zooming out or panning over); the original range of data points is set in stone due to
storeOriginalScaleLimits()
.
A partial workaround for zooming out is to call resetZoom()
once you've zoomed all the way out:
onZoomComplete: ({chart}) => {
if( !this.is_resetting_zoom && chart.getZoomLevel() == 1 ) {
this.is_resetting_zoom = true;
chart.resetZoom();
this.is_resetting_zoom = false;
}
}
No workaround for when you're zoomed in or panning.
I know you could update limits min/max with the range of the new data (like in #649), as it arrives, but that information may not be available, and not as convenient.
