Creating Graphs

[mikethecoder4]

Hello All.

Does the API (or perhaps LUA itself) have any functions that can simply draw a line or other shape? I want to make a sort of graph for my addon to show some information, and so far, all I have figured out how to make was a simple bar graph. If I have to stick with bar graphs, thats fine, but I would love to be able to create a line graph, or even a pie graph if possible!

If anyone has any insight on how I would accomplish this that would be awesome! Thank you for reading

We have a library that goes into providing those expanded UI elements, called Unicorn:

But afaik that stopped after the first item (a list).

The best fit in the wiki is propably the LineControl.

Or maybe you can do something with the new TextureComposite controll that was added with 1.2.3?

Overall UI is not my strong area in ESO.

I think a pie graph is possible with some smart texture layering.

I am not sure if you can actually draw a line. But also by combining textures and rotating/positioning you could get close to a linegraph.

Never tried it, but if it can be done in WoW, it has to be possible in ESO.
An example: http://www.wowace.com/addons/recount/images/

(Graphs are created using LibGraph-2.0 library, so it can be probably adapted for ESO)
