Quick Start Example

Here's a minimal range selector for time-series data filtering with event handling:

@using Syncfusion.Blazor.Charts

@{
    DateTime[] range = SelectedRange as DateTime[] ?? new DateTime[] { DateTime.Now, DateTime.Now };
}
<h3>Stock Price Range Selector</h3>
<p>Selected Range: @range[0].ToShortDateString() to @range[1].ToShortDateString()</p>

<SfRangeNavigator @bind-Value="@SelectedRange" 
                  ValueType="RangeValueType.DateTime"
                  LabelFormat="MMM-yy"
                  IntervalType="RangeIntervalType.Months">
        <RangeNavigatorEvents Changed="OnRangeChanged"></RangeNavigatorEvents>
    <RangeNavigatorRangeTooltipSettings Enable="true"></RangeNavigatorRangeTooltipSettings>
    <RangeNavigatorSeriesCollection>
        <RangeNavigatorSeries DataSource="@StockData" 
                              XName="Date" 
                              YName="Close" 
                              Type="RangeNavigatorType.Area"
                              Fill="#3F51B5">
        </RangeNavigatorSeries>
    </RangeNavigatorSeriesCollection>
</SfRangeNavigator>

@code {
    public class StockInfo
    {
        public DateTime Date { get; set; }
        public double Close { get; set; }
    }
    
    public object SelectedRange = new DateTime[] 
    { 
        new DateTime(2020, 01, 01), 
        new DateTime(2021, 01, 01) 
    };
    
    public List<StockInfo> StockData = new List<StockInfo>
    {
        new StockInfo { Date = new DateTime(2018, 01, 01), Close = 35 },
        new StockInfo { Date = new DateTime(2019, 01, 01), Close = 42 },
        new StockInfo { Date = new DateTime(2020, 01, 01), Close = 48 },
        new StockInfo { Date = new DateTime(2021, 01, 01), Close = 56 },
        new StockInfo { Date = new DateTime(2022, 01, 01), Close = 62 }
    };
    
    private void OnRangeChanged(ChangedEventArgs args)
    {
        // Handle range change event
        Console.WriteLine($"Range changed: {args.Start} to {args.End}");
    }
}

What this creates:

  • Area chart showing stock price trend with blue fill (#3F51B5)
  • Draggable thumbs for range selection
  • Initially selected range: Jan 2020 to Jan 2021
  • Month labels with "MMM-yy" format
  • Tooltip showing values on hover
  • Event handler responding to range changes
  • Two-way binding with @bind-Value directive

Common Use Cases

1. Stock Price Filtering with Period Selector

Filter stock data with quick period buttons:

@using Syncfusion.Blazor.Charts

<SfRangeNavigator @bind-Value="@SelectedRange" 
                  ValueType="RangeValueType.DateTime"
                  IntervalType="RangeIntervalType.Months"
                  LabelFormat="MMM yy">
    <RangeNavigatorRangeTooltipSettings Enable="true" DisplayMode="TooltipDisplayMode.Always">
    </RangeNavigatorRangeTooltipSettings>
    <RangeNavigatorPeriodSelectorSettings>
        <RangeNavigatorPeriods>
            <RangeNavigatorPeriod Text="1M" Interval="1" IntervalType="RangeIntervalType.Months"></RangeNavigatorPeriod>
            <RangeNavigatorPeriod Text="3M" Interval="3" IntervalType="RangeIntervalType.Months"></RangeNavigatorPeriod>
            <RangeNavigatorPeriod Text="6M" Interval="6" IntervalType="RangeIntervalType.Months"></RangeNavigatorPeriod>
            <RangeNavigatorPeriod Text="YTD"></RangeNavigatorPeriod>
            <RangeNavigatorPeriod Text="1Y" Interval="1" IntervalType="RangeIntervalType.Years"></RangeNavigatorPeriod>
            <RangeNavigatorPeriod Text="All"></RangeNavigatorPeriod>
        </RangeNavigatorPeriods>
    </RangeNavigatorPeriodSelectorSettings>
    <RangeNavigatorSeriesCollection>
        <RangeNavigatorSeries DataSource="@StockData" XName="Date" YName="Close" Type="RangeNavigatorType.Area">
        </RangeNavigatorSeries>
    </RangeNavigatorSeriesCollection>
</SfRangeNavigator>

@{
    DateTime[] range = SelectedRange as DateTime[] ?? new DateTime[] { DateTime.Now, DateTime.Now };
}
<p>Selected Range: @range[0].ToShortDateString() to @range[1].ToShortDateString()</p>

@code {
    public object SelectedRange = new DateTime[] 
    { 
        new DateTime(2022, 01, 01), 
        new DateTime(2023, 01, 01) 
    };
    
    public List<StockInfo> StockData = GetStockData();
    
    private static List<StockInfo> GetStockData()
    {
        // Sample data generation
        var data = new List<StockInfo>();
        var startDate = new DateTime(2020, 01, 01);
        var random = new Random();
        
        for (int i = 0; i < 100; i++)
        {
            data.Add(new StockInfo 
            { 
                Date = startDate.AddDays(i * 10), 
                Close = 100 + random.Next(-20, 20) 
            });
        }
        
        return data;
    }

    public class StockInfo
    {
        public DateTime Date { get; set; }
        public double Close { get; set; }
    }
}

2. Dashboard with Range-Based Filtering

Synchronize chart data with range selector:

@using Syncfusion.Blazor.Charts

<div class="dashboard-container">
    <h3>Sales Dashboard</h3>
    <SfRangeNavigator Value="@SelectedRange"
                      ValueType="RangeValueType.DateTime"
                      Height="140px">

        <RangeNavigatorEvents Changed="OnRangeChanged" />

        <RangeNavigatorSeriesCollection>
            <RangeNavigatorSeries DataSource="@SalesDetails"
                                  XName="Date"
                                  YName="Revenue"
                                  Type="RangeNavigatorType.Area" />
        </RangeNavigatorSeriesCollection>

    </SfRangeNavigator>
    <SfChart Height="300px">
        <ChartPrimaryXAxis ValueType="Syncfusion.Blazor.Charts.ValueType.DateTime"
                           Minimum="@SelectedRange[0]"
                           Maximum="@SelectedRange[1]" />

        <ChartSeriesCollection>
            <ChartSeries DataSource="@FilteredData"
                         XName="Date"
                         YName="Revenue"
                         Type="ChartSeriesType.Column" />
        </ChartSeriesCollection>
    </SfChart>
</div>

@code {
    public DateTime[] SelectedRange =
    {
        new DateTime(2023, 01, 01),
        new DateTime(2023, 06, 30)
    };

    public List<SalesData> SalesDetails = new();
    public List<SalesData> FilteredData = new();

    protected override void OnInitialized()
    {
        SalesDetails = GetSalesData();
        ApplyFilter();
    }

    private void OnRangeChanged(ChangedEventArgs args)
    {
        if (args.Start is DateTime start && args.End is DateTime end)
        {
            SelectedRange = new[] { start, end };
            ApplyFilter();
        }
    }

    private void ApplyFilter()
    {
        FilteredData = SalesDetails
            .Where(d => d.Date >= SelectedRange[0] && d.Date <= SelectedRange[1])
            .ToList();
    }

    private List<SalesData> GetSalesData()
    {
        var data = new List<SalesData>();
        var random = new Random();
        var start = new DateTime(2023, 01, 01);
        decimal revenue = 15000;

        for (int i = 0; i < 180; i++)
        {
            revenue += random.Next(-1500, 2000);

            data.Add(new SalesData
            {
                Date = start.AddDays(i),
                Revenue = Math.Max(revenue, 5000)
            });
        }

        return data;
    }

    public class SalesData
    {
        public DateTime Date { get; set; }
        public decimal Revenue { get; set; }
    }
}

3. Lightweight Mode for Performance

Optimize for large datasets:

@using Syncfusion.Blazor.Charts

<SfRangeNavigator Value="@SelectedRange" 
                  ValueType="RangeValueType.DateTime"
                  EnableGrouping="true"
                  GroupBy="RangeIntervalType.Months"
                  AllowSnapping="true">
    <RangeNavigatorRangeTooltipSettings Enable="true"></RangeNavigatorRangeTooltipSettings>
    <RangeNavigatorSeriesCollection>
        <RangeNavigatorSeries DataSource="@LargeDataset" 
                              XName="Timestamp" 
                              YName="Value"
                              Type="RangeNavigatorType.Line">
        </RangeNavigatorSeries>
    </RangeNavigatorSeriesCollection>
</SfRangeNavigator>

@code {
    public DateTime[] SelectedRange;
    public List<DataPoint> LargeDataset = GenerateLargeDataset(10000);

    public class DataPoint
    {
        public DateTime Timestamp { get; set; }
        public double Value { get; set; }
    }
    
    private static List<DataPoint> GenerateLargeDataset(int count)
    {
        // Generate large dataset efficiently
        return Enumerable.Range(0, count)
            .Select(i => new DataPoint 
            { 
                Timestamp = DateTime.Now.AddHours(-count + i), 
                Value = Math.Sin(i * 0.1) * 100 
            })
            .ToList();
    }
}

Implementation Workflow

When implementing a range selector, follow this sequence:

1. Start with [Getting Started](references/getting-started.md) for installation and basic setup 2. Configure range values from Range Configuration for selection behavior 3. Choose series type using Series Types for visualization 4. Set up data binding from Data Binding for your data structure — when using remote data prefer trusted/internal APIs or mocked data; see Data Binding - Security Considerations 5. Add period selector (optional) with Period Selector Integration 6. Customize axis with Axis Customization for proper labeling 7. Apply visual styling from Visual Customization 8. Add export and events using Export, Events, and Accessibility 9. Review [API Reference](references/api-reference.md) for complete API documentation with all classes, properties, and enums

For questions or issues, refer to the troubleshooting sections in each reference file or consult Export, Events, and Accessibility for event handling patterns and accessibility requirements.
