2D plotting types

This chapter introduces line and point graphs to be used with ILPanel.

General graph handling

ILPanel does not distinguish between 2D and 3D plot types. All graphs derive from the same abstract base class: ILGraph. Those ILGraph objects own very view properties and are not supposed to be used directly for configuration or directly created by user code. Graphs are rather created by help of the ILPanel.Graphs property. The returned value gives access to the ILGraphCollection class, belonging to every ILPanel.

ILGraphCollection is used to add, manage and remove graphs from the collection. It provides typed overloads of functions, which create and return references to specific graphs.

All specific graph classes reside in the namespace ILNumerics.Drawing.Graphs, which should be included for convenient access.

Any number and type of graphs may get combined into a ILPanel.

The collection of 2D graph types is still growing. Currently the following 2D graphs are available:
