The ResamplingMode is used to define how SciChart resamples (reduces) series before rendering. Please see the options below for ResamplingMode.

Tip! It is important to note that several ResamplingMode methods make assumptions about the data in order to produce an error-free visual output.

The Default ResamplingMode

Note the default ResamplingMode in SciChart v3.0 is Auto, which will automatically detect if your data is Sorted, Unsorted, evenly spaced or unevenly spaced.

In SciChart v2.x the default ResamplingMode is MinMax, which assumes that data is evenly spaced and sorted in the X direction. If your data distribution differs from this and you are getting bad rendering results, we recommend you try out SciChart v3.0's ResamplingMode.Auto.
