2.0.0-rc1
Pre-release
The first release candidate of LiveCharts2 is finally here, this release fixes a lot of reported issues, and improves the user interaction with the chart on Android, iOS, Mac Catalyst and Windows, a lot of new examples were added to the web site.
Whats next for the LiveCharts2?
Most of the issues of the library seem to be solved now, the first GA release should come soon (November/December 2023), the Backers's Package (performance, themes and extended features) should be available for everyone soon, this package will make it even easier to create stunning charts.
User interaction
This release improves the user interaction with the chart on touch screens, touch pads and the mouse/magic mouse; On MAUI and Uno we use the native events in every OS to create a custom experience for the library, on Avalonia, we use the events provided by the framework.
On previous versions, some examples in the web were not working properly, now every sample works as the docs say.

New charts
Since a couple of releases ago, new chart types were added, this release announces the new types:
- Angular gauges
- Error bars
- Box Series
Multiple new examples in the web site
A lot of examples in the repo were not in the web site, there are a lot of new examples:
Issues fixed:
- Multiline labels were improved, in previous versions there were special cases where text was not measured properly.
- Tooltips and legends, now by default wrap every long string into multiple lines, this helps to prevent that the tooltip goes out of the chart, tooltips in LiveCharts are limited to the control area but when you need a "framework specific" tooltip, you can create your own (#912)
- Events on MAUI and Uno work much better, the implementation of native events, allowed LiveCharts to invoke the correct event no matter the OS the chart is running on.
