- Plottable: Collapsed
IHasAxisLimits
,IHasDataValidation
, andIHasLegendItems
back intoIPlottable
, reverting a change introduced by the previous version. The intent of the original change was to promote interface segregation (e.g., colorbar has no axis limits).

Published on NuGet on 2020-11-29
- In November, 2020 ScottPlot 4.0 branched into a permanent
stable
branch, and ScottPlot 4.1 began development as beta / pre-release in the main branch. ScottPlot 4.0 continues to be maintained, but modifications are aimed at small bugfixes rather than large refactoring or the addition of new features. ScottPlot 4.1 merged into the master branch in November, 2020 (#605). Improvements are focused at enhanced performance, improved thread safety, support for multiple axes, and options for data validation. - Most plotting methods are unchanged so many users will not experience any breaking changes.
- Axis Limits: Axis limits are described by a
AxisLimits
struct (previouslydouble[]
was used) - Axis Limits: Methods which modify axis limits do not return anything (previously they returned
double[]
) - Axis Limits: To get the latest axis limits call
Plot.AxisLimits()
which returns aAxisLimits
object - Multiple Axes: Multiple axes are now supported! There is no change to the traditional workflow if this feature is not used.
- Multiple Axes: Most axis methods accept a
xAxisIndex
andyAxisIndex
arguments to specify which axes they will modify or return - Multiple Axes: Most plottable objects have
xAxisIndex
andyAxisIndex
fields which specify which axes they will render on - Multiple Axes: You can enable a second Y and X axis by calling
YLabel2
andXLabel2()
- Multiple Axes: You can obtain an axis by calling
GetXAxis(xAxisIndex)
orGetYAxis(yAxisIndex)
, then modify its public fields to customize its behavior - Multiple Axes: The default axes (left and bottom) both use axis index
0
- Multiple Axes: The secondary axes (right and top) both use axis index
1
- Multiple Axes: You can create additional axes by calling
Plot.AddAxis()
and customize it by modifying fields of theAxis
it returns. - Layout: The layout is re-calculated on every render, so it automatically adjusts to accommodate axis labels and ticks.
- Layout: To achieve extra space around the data area, call
Layout()
to supply a minimum size for each axis. - Layout: To achieve a frameless plot where the data area fills the full figure, call
LayoutFrameless()
- Naming: The
Plottable
base class has been replaced with anIPlottable
interface - Naming: Plottables have been renamed and moved into a
Plottable
namespace (e.g.,PlottableScatter
is nowPlottable.ScatterPlot
) - Naming: Several enums have been renamed
- Settings: It is still private, but you can request it with
Plot.GetSettings()
- Settings: Many of its objects implement
IRenderable
, so their customization options are stored at the same level as their render methods. - Rendering:
Bitmap
objects are never stored. TheRender()
method will create and return a newBitmap
when called, or will render onto an existingBitmap
if it is supplied as an argument. This allows controls to manage their own performance optimization by optionally re-using aBitmap
for multiple renders. - Rendering: Drawing is achieved with
using
statements which respect allIDisposable
drawing objects, improving thread safety and garbage collection performance.

Plot.PlotFill()
can be used to make scatter plots with shaded regions. Giving it a single pair of X/Y values (xs, ys
) lets you shade beneath the curve to thebaseline
value (which defaults to 0). You can also give it a pair of X/Y values (xs1, ys1, xs2, ys2
) and the area between the two curves will be shaded (the two curves do not need to be the same length). See cookbook for examples. (#255) @ckovameesDataGen.Range()
now hasincludeStop
argument to include the last value in the returned array.Tools.Pad()
has been created to return a copy of a given array padded with data values on each side. (#255) @ckovamees- Seaborn style can be activated using
Plot.Style(Style.Seaborn)

Published on NuGet on 2020-04-07
Ticks()
now has arguments for numericStringFormat (X and Y) to make it easy to customize formatting of tick labels (percentage, currency, scientific notation, etc.) using standard numeric format strings. Example use is demonstrated in the cookbook. (#336) @deiruch- The right-click menu can now be more easily customized by writing a custom menu to
FormsPlot.ContextMenuStrip
orWpfPlot.ContextMenu
. Demonstrations of both are in the demo application. (#337) @Antracik

Plot.Polygon()
can now be used to plot polygons from X/Y points (#255) @ckovamees- User controls now have an "open in new window" item in their right-click menu (#280)
- Plots now have offset notation and multiplier notation disabled by default. Layouts are automatically calculated before the first render, or manually after MouseUp events in the user controls. (#310)
Plot.Annotation()
allows for the placement of text on the figure using pixel coordinates (not unit coordinates on the data grid). This is useful for creating custom static labels or information messages. (#321) @SeidChrFormsPlot.MouseDoubleClicked
event now passes a properMouseEventArgs
instead ofnull
(#331) @ismdiego- Added a right-click menu to
WpfPlot

- WPF User Control: A ScottPlotWPF user control was created to allow provide a simple mouse-interactive ScottPlot control to WPF applications. It is not as full-featured as the winforms control (it lacks a right-click menu and click-and-drag functions), but it is simple to review the code (<100 lines) and easy to use.
- New plot type:
plt.AxisSpan()
shades a region of the graph (semi-transparency is supported) - Ticks: Vertical ticks no longer overlap with vertical axis label (#47) @bukkideme
- Ticks: When axis tick labels contain very large or very small numbers, scientific notation mode is engaged
