Wisteria Dataviz Library

Wisteria Dataviz

About

Wisteria Dataviz is data visualization library based on wxWidgets. It includes features such as:

• Numerous built-in graphs (refer to the Wisteria::Graphs namespace for a full list)
• Interface for displaying tabular data
• Built-in printing, copying, and exporting support
• Data importing (Excel, CSV, tab-delimited, or user-defined delimited files) support
• Data transformations, such as filtering, pivoting (both longer or wider), subsetting, and recoding
• Data exporting (CSV, tab-delimited, or user-defined delimited files) support
• Image support, including the ability to use images for plot and bar backgrounds, logos, and point markers
• Image effects, such as oil-painting and Sepia tone
• Effects for boxes and bars, including transparency, a watercolor look, a glassy look, stipple brushes, and color fades
• Reference lines and areas
• Pre-defined and extensible color schemes
• Multi-plot support
  • Graphs can be embedded side-by-side on the same (scrollable) canvas
  • Includes support for setting a common axis for all graphs across a row or down a column

See more in the features overview.

General Workflow

• Setup the library's settings (optionally) when your application starts
• Construct a Wisteria::Canvas object (which is a wxScrolledWindow-derived window), and embed it into a wxFrame or wxDialog
• Import data into a Wisteria::Data::Dataset (or build a dataset), specifying which columns to include and how to classify them
• Construct a plot object (e.g., Wisteria::Graphs::LinePlot) and pass your dataset to it
• Customize the plot, as needed
  • Change the colors and styles of the bars, lines, etc.
  • Change the plot background color, or use an image as the background
  • Add titles and captions
  • Adjust the axes, add tickmarks, add custom labels
  • etc.
• Add the plot (and its legend [if applicable]) to the canvas

wisteria-dataviz's Issues

Arrows used on Likert charts should be optional

Emojis are used for these, so they may not be shown correctly if the font being used doesn't support them. For example, on Linux Mint the default font doesn't appear to support these characters.

Any feature about two Y axies in the chart?

Hi, I'm not familiar with your library.

I'm using a very simple wxMathPlot library for many years.

Now, I need some new features for 2 Y axis, I mean something like:

Plots with different scales — Matplotlib 3.8.3 documentation

Is this possible?

Thanks.

I added a cross reference to wxMathPlot's ticket, it is hard to implement such feature in wxMathPlot library, see : two y axis with different coordinates, one on left and one on right · Issue #20 · GitHubLionel/wxMathPlot

Sankey improvements

• Better icon
• Example image
• Dataset showing grouping feature

Visual Studio cmake fails (Windows, Visual Studio 2022)

Apologies, I'm not a cmake expert, and I can't build...
I'm using Visual Studio 2022 with all the latest patches, with its built-in cmake.
I installed wxWidgets 3.2.5, and built the libraries (debug 64-bit) using wxWidgets-provided SLN (not cmake).
wxWidgets samples build and run fine (I've written wxWidgets apps before, no problem there).

I tried to follow your instructions for Windows/Visual Studio.
When I first opened the project, settings wanted separate paths for wxWidgets_ROOT_DIR and wxWidgets_LIB_DIR which I provided. First attempt at build wanted path for wxWidgets_wxrc_EXECUTABLE which I added.
Now build fails as follows:
Severity Code Description Project File Line Suppression State Details Error CMake Error at C:/Program Files/Microsoft Visual Studio/2022/Community/Common7/IDE/CommonExtensions/Microsoft/CMake/CMake/share/cmake-3.28/Modules/FindPackageHandleStandardArgs.cmake:230 (message): Could NOT find wxWidgets (missing: wxWidgets_LIBRARIES wxWidgets_INCLUDE_DIRS core base adv html ribbon xml xrc qa propgrid) C:/Program Files/Microsoft Visual Studio/2022/Community/Common7/IDE/CommonExtensions/Microsoft/CMake/CMake/share/cmake-3.28/Modules/FindPackageHandleStandardArgs.cmake 230

I added wxWidgets_LIBRARIES and wxWidgets_INCLUDE_DIRS to settings but that made no difference.

Again sorry to bother you with this, but any suggestions?
Thanks in advance!
Best Regards, Dave

Need ability to find where a bar block begins/ends along the scaling axis (bar chart)

This could be useful for adding brackets or annotations next to a bar.

JSON syntax: variable names should allow embedded constants

Sankey codes does this; apply the same to the other graph types.

CMake issues with wxWidgets 3.2

wxWidgets 3.2 requires the very latest CMake because of an update to the findwxWidgets file. Unfortunately, MSVS 2022 includes the prior CMake release, and updating the find file to fix it requires admin permissions on your machine.

May need to explicitly require the latest CMake, which will requiring waiting for MSVC to include that version as well.

Numerous axis labels result in slow performance when resizing window

• Added fix to not deal with axis labels if they aren't being displayed
• Move code out of Label::Draw (into unlikely functions)
• Remove font scaling loops used for axis labels

Ability to apply different label displays for each column

I hope this library could be part of msys2's library

There are a lot of libraries which can be installed by msys2's pacman command, see:

https://packages.msys2.org/package/

But there are few ones which support wxWidgets. Hopefully this library will arrive there.

Thanks.

demo.cpp build failed on linux mint 20.3 with cmake 3.24.1

I use wxWidgets 3.2.1 from CodeLite PPA.

Build steps:

1. mkdir build
2. cd build
3. cmake ..
4. make -j$(nproc)

Library fails to build with wxWidgets built with WXWIN_COMPATIBILITY_3_0 set to 0

When building the library using wxWidgets built with WXWIN_COMPATIBILITY_3_0 set to 0, this code fails to compile:

https://github.com/Blake-Madden/Wisteria-Dataviz/blob/28a670ba46bb9b61a6bbcc29b6120e98ff2638b3/src/util/logfile.cpp#L113-L153

Error C2039 'timestamp': is not a member of 'wxLogRecordInfo' Wisteria D:\dev\Desktop\Lib\Wisteria-Dataviz-GIT\src\util\logfile.cpp 115

It is because the deprecated wxLogRecordInfo::timestamp is not available anymore:
https://github.com/wxWidgets/wxWidgets/blob/17371d911d9ec68b0c2d98c7f56977523803b392/include/wx/log.h#L151-L153

It is probably simple to fix by just using wxLogRecordInfo::timestampMS divided by 1000, but it could be better to not duplicate wxLogFormatter code and use it (perhaps customized) instead.

BTW, is LogFile::DoLogTextAtLevel() ever called? In wxLog classes it is usually called from DoLogRecord() but you do not call it from there nor call the base method. But I may be missing something.

How do you draw the pie chart?

Hi, I see this image:

https://github.com/Blake-Madden/Wisteria-Dataviz/blob/main/docs/doxygen/images/DonutChart.svg

I just want to now how do you draw the portion of a ring?

I have looked at the source code: Wisteria-Dataviz/piechart.cpp at 6670a45def9539e25f8be0e7c84763ffd202d2ce · Blake-Madden/Wisteria-Dataviz

I see it only have some GDI call like "dc.DrawEllipticArc".

I have a similar question in wx forum, see here: How to draw a portion of a ring?

So, do you use the pen which has the property set like: pen.SetCap(wxCAP_BUTT); or you use other method?

Thanks.

Wordcloud feature

Customer has requested a word cloud feature.

• Must support non-English letters
• Add image to overview
• Add dataset
• Add to demo
• Add icon

Need a "thicker" option for watercolor bar/box effect

The watercolor effect for bars and boxes uses the library's translucency value, which by default is low. A "thick watercolor" effect is needed that will render the same effect, but not use transparency (or at least be much higher, ~225).

Asserts in sample in Point2D::Draw

When running a sample and trying to show some charts (e.g., Line Plot or Linear Regression Roadmap), an assert is shown:
D:\dev\Desktop\Lib\Wisteria-Dataviz-GIT\src\base\shapes.cpp(209): assert "m_drawFunction" failed in Wisteria::GraphItems::Shape::Draw(): Shape failed to set drawing function!

Call stack

	WisteriaDemo.exe!Wisteria::GraphItems::Shape::Draw(const wxRect & drawRect, wxDC & dc) Line 209	C++
 	WisteriaDemo.exe!Wisteria::GraphItems::Shape::Draw(wxDC & dc) Line 86	C++
 	WisteriaDemo.exe!Wisteria::GraphItems::Point2D::Draw(wxDC & dc) Line 322	C++
 	WisteriaDemo.exe!Wisteria::GraphItems::Points2D::Draw(wxDC & dc) Line 285	C++
 	WisteriaDemo.exe!Wisteria::Graphs::Graph2D::Draw(wxDC & dc) Line 867	C++
 	WisteriaDemo.exe!Wisteria::Canvas::OnDraw(wxDC & dc) Line 1311	C++

It seems that m_drawFunction is null because m_shape is Blank but as I am not familiar with code I do not know whether the problem is that the m_drawFunction is null when it should not be or whether the assert should take m_shape being Blank into account.

Windows 10 v19044.1889, wxWidgets GIT master built 64-bit Debug Static, both displays set at 125% DPI.

Sorry for flooding the repo with issues, I have not even really tried the library, as I always fail with some issue like this.

Import needs to support multiple MD values

Currently it only supports one, but you should be able to specify a vector of these.

Add pattern support

Bar charts (and perhaps pie charts) need the ability to apply user-defined brush patterns. Currently, only background color customizations are supported.

• Categorical bar chart
• Histogram
• Box plot
• Pie chart

Bugs in sample when importing CSV

Please, if you are not accepting issues, let me know and I will stop submitting them. It's just wxWidgets is in a sore need of a good maintained chart library, so I took interest in yours, thanks for it BTW.

Bug 1
The sample imports its files like this pieData->ImportCSV(L"datasets/Fall Enrollment.csv"...

However, relying on the CWD means that the import fails when the sample is launched from MSVS. Therefore, the sample should for example use wxStandardPaths::GetResourcesDir() and wxFileName to compose the path relative to the executable.

Bug 2
Reporting import error shows two error boxes: one empty followed by one by wxLogError(). When Dataset::ImportText() encounters an error when opening/reading the file, it throws std::runtime_error, passing it a wxString which includes the system error message. However, standard exception uses narrow std::string, so when the system error message contains characters not representable in the current code page, wxString conversion to narrow char produces an empty string:

As the wxWidgets built-in error reporting mechanism was not suppressed with wxLogNull when using wxTextFile, another error box is produced:

Screenshot dynamic IDs need to work for text window and list control functions also

Dataset pivoting (stacking/unstacking) is needed

• pivot wider
• pivot longer

Sankey diagram needed

Sankey diagram is needed for a report. A rudimentary two-column one is fine for now, but more than two columns later could perhaps be useful (although IMO more than three columns is unreadable).

• Basic Sankey diagram, requiring a "from," "to," and "weight" series of columns
• Ability to control the color scheme
• Grouping support (for the first column)

Thank you for any possible hint

Documentation is lacking regarding building your own dataset and passing it on to a graph

I'm trying to replicate the Line Plot demo using data from memory instead of a CSV file but I cannot figure it out. The call to SetData() keeps saying "Y column not found for line plot" even though I followed the official instructions. Can somebody who uses this library please translate the following code for me? I need it to load the AVG_GRADE from an array of doubles and WEEK_NAME from an array of strings (any type of string is fine):

linePlotData->ImportCSV(L"/home/leo/Wisteria-Dataviz/datasets/Spelling Grades-custom.csv",
		Data::ImportInfo().
		// first the Y column
		ContinuousColumns({ L"AVG_GRADE"}).
		// group and X
		CategoricalColumns({
			{ L"WEEK_NAME", Data::CategoricalImportMethod::ReadAsStrings }
			}));

The above code is basically the same as the official demo but with only one line instead of two. The CSV file has also been modified to reflect this, and the graph does display correctly. I just can't figure out how to do it from arrays...

Add pivoting example to the demo

Show how to pivot a dataset longer for use in a line plot.

I am quite sure I updated the GIT submodules so I have no idea where those missing methods are supposed to come from...

The dependency is wx 3.1.7?

Hi, this project is great, I just see your post from wx dev maillist.

But wx 3.1.7 is not released yet? Do you mean wx 3.1.6?

wxWidgets 3.1.6 Released - wxWidgets

Demo asserts: click on either heatmap icon.

Assert failure below, colorbrewer line 28:
assert((std::isnan(value) || (value >= m_range.first && value <= m_range.second)) && L"Value passed to BrewColor() should be within established data range " "from previous call to BrewColors()!");

Does not build with MSVS in Debug configuration

When attempting to build x64 Debug configuration using generated MSVS solution, I get the error:

Building Custom Rule D:/Dev/Desktop/!Lib/Wisteria-Dataviz-GIT/CMakeLists.txt
2>C:\Program Files\Microsoft Visual Studio\2022\Community\MSBuild\Microsoft\VC\v170\Microsoft.CppCommon.targets(700,5): error MSB6006: "CL.exe" exited with code 2.
2>cl : command line error D8016: '/O2' and '/RTC1' command-line options are incompatible
2>Done building project "Wisteria.vcxproj" -- FAILED.

The Release configuration builds just fine. I built only a couple of libraries with CMake but never encountered this error.

Can you really use CMAKE_BUILD_TYPE like this with multi-config generators:

Wisteria-Dataviz/CMakeLists.txt

Lines 81 to 99 in da306a1

Add support for loading a report spec file

Would be nice to be able to import a JSON file that describes a canvas (or series of canvases) and all of its contents.
This should include:

• Datasets
• Reference lines and areas
• Annotations on graphs
• Graph backgrounds and images
• Text labels
• Images
• Line plots
• Pie charts
• Bar charts
• Histograms
• Box plots
• LR Roadmaps
• Pro Con Roadmaps
• Candlestick plot
• Likert charts
• Gantt charts
• Heatmaps
• W-Curve plots
• Tables
• Shapes
• Fillable shapes
• Printing of multiple pages
• Paper size

Image export: higher resolution needed

User needs at least 300 DPI for image export; this is required for publishing.

Exporting as image with customized size clips image

The canvas may need to be temporarily resized while it exports (similar to what is done when printing).

Need better app icon

Preferably something like a tree with purple leaves.

Need ability to add an image above a label

Image should be centered above the text.
It should maintain its original size and note be scaled, unlike image left of the text.

Word cloud: add option to limit cloud to x number of words

This should happen after the min and (optional) max frequency filtering has been applied.
