Implementing Syncfusion Flutter Cartesian Charts

SfCartesianChart is a high-performance Flutter widget from the syncfusion_flutter_charts package that supports 30+ chart types plotted on Cartesian (X/Y) coordinates. It handles real-time data, rich interactivity, and deep customization.

When to Use This Skill

Use this skill when you need to:

• Render any line, area, column, bar, spline, scatter, or financial chart in Flutter
• Configure axis types (numeric, category, date-time, logarithmic)
• Add zooming, panning, tooltip, trackball, or crosshair interaction
• Customize series appearance (colors, gradients, markers, data labels)
• Add annotations, technical indicators, or trendlines
• Export charts or respond to chart callbacks
• Support RTL, localization, or accessibility

Component Overview

The SfCartesianChart widget is a comprehensive charting solution that displays data using Cartesian (X/Y) coordinates. It supports over 30 chart types across multiple categories:

• Line Charts: Line, fast line, spline (various tension types), step line
• Area Charts: Area, spline area, step area, range area, spline range area, stacked area (including 100%)
• Column/Bar Charts: Column, bar, range column, stacked column/bar (including 100%)
• Scatter/Bubble: Scatter, bubble charts
• Financial Charts: Candle, OHLC, HiLo, HiLoOpenClose with support for technical indicators
• Statistical: Histogram, box and whisker, error bar
• Waterfall: For cumulative effect visualization

The widget provides five axis types (Numeric, Category, DateTime, DateTimeCategory, Logarithmic), interactive features (zoom, pan, tooltip, trackball, crosshair), selection behaviors, rich customization (markers, data labels, gradients, animations), technical indicators (SMA, EMA, MACD, RSI, Bollinger Bands, etc.), trendlines, annotations, and chart export capabilities.

Quick Start

# Always installs the latest compatible version automatically
flutter pub add syncfusion_flutter_charts

Always install the package via terminal — do not edit pubspec.yaml directly. Run this command from the Flutter project root and wait for it to complete successfully before proceeding.

import 'package:syncfusion_flutter_charts/charts.dart';

class MyChart extends StatelessWidget {
  @override
  Widget build(BuildContext context) {
    return SizedBox(
      height: 300,
      child: SfCartesianChart(
        primaryXAxis: CategoryAxis(),
        title: ChartTitle(text: 'Monthly Sales'),
        legend: Legend(isVisible: true),
        tooltipBehavior: TooltipBehavior(enable: true),
        series: <CartesianSeries>[
          LineSeries<ChartData, String>(
            dataSource: [
              ChartData('Jan', 35),
              ChartData('Feb', 28),
              ChartData('Mar', 34),
              ChartData('Apr', 32),
              ChartData('May', 40),
            ],
            xValueMapper: (ChartData d, _) => d.x,
            yValueMapper: (ChartData d, _) => d.y,
            name: 'Sales',
            dataLabelSettings: DataLabelSettings(isVisible: true),
          ),
        ],
      ),
    );
  }
}

class ChartData {
  ChartData(this.x, this.y);
  final String x;
  final double? y;
}

Common Patterns

Pattern 1 — Live / Real-Time Data Update

late ChartSeriesController _controller;

onRendererCreated: (ChartSeriesController controller) {
  _controller = controller;
},

void addDataPoint(ChartData newPoint) {
  chartData.add(newPoint);
  _controller.updateDataSource(
    addedDataIndexes: [chartData.length - 1],
  );
}

Pattern 2 — Multiple Series on One Chart

series: <CartesianSeries>[
  LineSeries<ChartData, String>(
    dataSource: data,
    xValueMapper: (d, _) => d.x,
    yValueMapper: (d, _) => d.y1,
    name: 'Revenue',
  ),
  ColumnSeries<ChartData, String>(
    dataSource: data,
    xValueMapper: (d, _) => d.x,
    yValueMapper: (d, _) => d.y2,
    name: 'Cost',
  ),
]

Pattern 3 — Zoom + Tooltip Together

late ZoomPanBehavior _zoom;
late TooltipBehavior _tooltip;

@override
void initState() {
  _zoom = ZoomPanBehavior(enablePinching: true, enableDoubleTapZooming: true);
  _tooltip = TooltipBehavior(enable: true);
  super.initState();
}

zoomPanBehavior: _zoom,
tooltipBehavior: _tooltip,
