oxyPlot delete coordinate points

Question

I am using C # WPF application with OxyPlot

How do I remove the coordinate points from the coordinate system again? Is there a "clear" command? I would like, for example, if I click on a button, the "circles" disappear in the coordinate System

I tried it with

Points.Clear();

Unfortunately the wrong approach you have the right approach for me, as I can delete my coordinates in the coordinate system?

Answer 1

You can set the ItemsSource to be null :

 private void btClear_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
 {
     ls.ItemsSource = null;
 }

Edit

if you don't want the values of the axis change, you can set the Minimum and Maximum properties:

 private void btClear_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
 {
    botAxis.Minimum = botAxis.InternalAxis.ActualMinimum;
    botAxis.Maximum = botAxis.InternalAxis.ActualMaximum;
    lefAxis.Minimum = lefAxis.InternalAxis.ActualMinimum;
    lefAxis.Maximum = lefAxis.InternalAxis.ActualMaximum; 
    ls.ItemsSource = null;
 }

Answer 2

First of all, dont mix up DataBinding and CodeBehind-Operations.

You bound the Points in a correct way. But you need to use an ObservableCollection<T>

Overriding the ItemsSource can produce an unexpected behavor in your Application.

See following code about how i got this to work:

public Window1() {
  InitializeComponent();
  oxyPlot.Width = 200;
  oxyPlot.Height = 200;
  this.Title = "Example 2";
  double zufallszahlX;
  double zufallszahlY;
  // Zur Erstellung des Seeds
  int h = DateTime.Now.Hour;
  int m = DateTime.Now.Minute;
  int s = DateTime.Now.Second;
  string u = h + m.ToString() + s;
  int iu = Int32.Parse(u);
  var zufall = new Random(iu);

  zufallszahlX = zufall.NextDouble() * (10 - -10) + -10;
  zufallszahlY = zufall.NextDouble() * (10 - -10) + -10;
  this.Points = new ObservableCollection<DataPoint> { new DataPoint(zufallszahlX, zufallszahlY) };
  this.DataContext = this;
}

public ObservableCollection<DataPoint> Points {
  get;
}

private void textBox_MouseLeave(object sender, MouseEventArgs e) {


}

private void textBox_TextChanged(object sender, TextChangedEventArgs e) {
  try {
    oxyPlot.Width = Int32.Parse(textBox.Text);
  } catch (Exception error) {
    MessageBox.Show("Mistake: " + error);
  }

}

private void button_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e) {
  double randomNumX;
  double randomNumY;
  int h = DateTime.Now.Hour;
  int m = DateTime.Now.Minute;
  int s = DateTime.Now.Second;
  String u = h.ToString() + m.ToString() + s.ToString();
  int iu = Int32.Parse(u);
  Random zufall = new Random(iu);

  for (int i = 0; i < 10; i++) {
    randomNumX = zufall.NextDouble() * (10 - -10) + -10;
    randomNumY = zufall.NextDouble() * (10 - -10) + -10;
    Points.Add(new DataPoint(randomNumX, randomNumY));
  }
  Points.Add(new DataPoint(0, 0));
  Points.Add(new DataPoint(-10, -10));
}



private void textBox1_TextChanged(object sender, TextChangedEventArgs e) {
  try {
    oxyPlot.Height = Int32.Parse(textBox1.Text);
  } catch (Exception error) {
    MessageBox.Show("Mistake: " + error);
  }
}

private void btClear_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e) {
  Points.Clear();
}

private void slider_ValueChanged(object sender, RoutedPropertyChangedEventArgs<double> e) {
  oxyPlot.Width = slider.Value;
}

private void btBitmap_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e) {
  oxyPlot.ToBitmap();
}

I left the XAML as it was.

Note

While the other answer might work, it can produce some issues if your application gets more complex
