As mentioned in my other thread, I'm using creating and adding a SeriesEventMarker on every mousemove event. This worked pretty flawlessly, until i change one specific property. As soon as I set Height\Width on the PoitnShapeStyle, the graph started uncontrollably flickering. In the screencap below, if I comment out the selected text, all flickering goes away and I get desired performance.

Thanks in advance!

It flickers because

Height = Width = this.PreferenceTrackPointShapeSize.

Here in the initializer list, Width actually is the Form's width. It takes it from the class scope, not from PointShapeStyle's scope. Parent class Width is set, typically Form, and hence the flickering.

Do it like this instead

Code: Select all

 PointShapeStyle markerShape = new PointShapeStyle(null)
            {
                BorderWidth = 1,
                
                //Height = Width = 21, //Width is form's width!  
                Height = this.PreferenceTrackPointShapeSize,
                Width = this.PreferenceTrackPointShapeSize, //this Width is for PointShapeStyle 
                
            };

Thanks for finding my bug

Ive just started using the object initializer syntax and having quite gotten in down apparently.
