ZeroCharts: High-Density Industrial Telemetry & Analytical Charts for .NET ๐Ÿ“Š

ZeroPlatform Tier License: MIT .NET Multi-Targeting NuGet Version Unit Tests

ZeroCharts is a high-density telemetry and analytical charting suite engineered in 100% pure C# for industrial automation, manufacturing MES/SCADA dashboards, and scientific instrumentation.

Operating as a specialized visual analytics member of Tier 4 (Graphics & Spatial 3D) within the ZeroPlatform ecosystem.


๐Ÿ›๏ธ Ecosystem Architectural Alignment

  • Architectural Tier: Tier 4 (Graphics & Spatial 3D)
  • Permitted Upstream Dependencies: Tier 0 (ZeroPrimitives, ZeroConcurrency), Tier 1 (ZeroCompute, ZeroTensor), Tier 2 (ZeroData, ZeroStorage), Tier 4 (ZeroGraphics)
  • Downstream Consumers: Tier 5 (ZeroUI, ZeroReports, ZeroPipeline)
  • Core Guarantees: Pure Direct2D / DirectX acceleration, LTTB decimation, sub-millisecond refresh, zero upward dependency.

๐Ÿš€ Key Features & Supported Series

1. Comprehensive Industrial Chart Paradigms

  • BarSeries: Clustered and categorical bar charts with auto-scaling CategoryAxis, per-bar custom coloring, and on-bar data value labels.
  • PieSeries / DoughnutSeries: Angular proportional pie/doughnut slices with inner hole radius ratio, slice explosion, percentage metrics, and radial angle hit-testing.
  • AreaSeries: Filled area regions under curves with smooth vertical alpha gradients and LTTB downsampling for streaming telemetry envelopes.
  • ScatterSeries: Multi-marker geometric points (Circle, Square, Diamond, Triangle, Cross) with spatial nearest-point search for statistical process control (SPC) and tolerance correlation.
  • RadarSeries: Polar multi-axial radar/spider grids for multi-dimensional KPI performance comparison.
  • LineSeries: High-frequency streaming line series with LTTB (Largest-Triangle-Three-Buckets) peak-preserving decimation.
  • CandlestickSeries: High-density OHLC financial & quality inspection candlesticks with body/wick styling.
  • HeatmapSeries: 2D spatial thermal matrices with smooth thermal gradient mapping.
  • GanttSeries: Industrial job shop schedules and timeline task tracks.

2. Interactive Controls & Usability

  • Interactive Legend (ChartLegend): Dynamic placement (Top, Bottom, Left, Right) with click-to-toggle series visibility.
  • Smart Data Inspector Tooltip: Hover card inspector displaying series badge, category, value, and target highlight circle.
  • Pan & Zoom: Right-click drag panning and mouse-wheel zooming with auto-fit boundaries.
  • Headless Snapshot Export: ToBitmap() and SaveImage(path, format) for headless export into reporting pipelines.

๐Ÿ“ฆ Multi-Targeting

  • .NET 8.0-windows
  • .NET Framework 4.6.2
