Quick Chart for BasicDataLogger files

[Godra]

I did post an answer in this thread: https://advancedhmi.com/forum/index.php?topic=715.0

There doesn't seem to be any easy way to just roll data off.

There was a minor bug with max/min labels showing incorrectly their respective series values when checking and un-checking the checkboxes.

I have attached modified solution and exe file.

Use fake log files from previous posts if you need them.

[Archie]

- Updated to .NET 4 so it would open without errors if you only have Visual Studio 2017
- Added file selection to pick your data file

Here is this Archie's version with couple more updates, a combobox to select Line Width and another to select Chart Type.

It should allow opening the log file even while it is being updated.

Do note that Series max and min boxes show values applicable only to currently visible points and not all the logged ones (unless you have selected to graph all the points or the current limit already includes all the logged points).

Attached in this post is the latest OLD version of the Quick Chart, which has all new features included.

It should be used only as an alternative over the NEW version in my previous post.

Nice work Godra.  I just started to look at this to see if it meets my charting needs.  First I understand this chart is static thus does not update live data changes.  The live data is logged by an AHMI BasicDataLogger control and stored where this chart can retrieve the data?  Are these assumptions correct? 

If they are, I would like to try to use this as a dynamic(live data) chart.  Can I just update the series like a normal chart control and not read from a file?  Is this an easy implementation or would I be better off starting from scratch?  Thanks!!

MrPike,

It is difficult to be smart about using any of the chart apps, including new Archie's version here:

You should take a look at all of them, try them 1 at the time and decide what's best for you.
I would personally choose Archie's version from other topic.

It could be possible to eventually add certain features from one app to another.
Or just try creating something from scratch and try adding any of the features from these apps.

Any of these might have bugs.
