How to move a Core Plot graph - objective-c

I have a Core-Plot Graph within a Mac Application. But the inside table is appearing shifted down and to the left of the containing "frame/border" so that neither of the axis' are showing. I cannot figure out how to change this does anyone know what parameters I need to change to fix this?
Update: Sorry I did not realize I could upload an image, I have done so know and will try your suggestions in the mean-time.

Not sure what you mean by "inside table". It would be easier to offer suggestions if you could post a screenshot.
Without seeing what's wrong, here are some common areas to look at:
If you haven't already done so, look at the example apps included with Core Plot for ideas. The Plot Gallery app has many sample plots and the others are useful, too.
You may need to add padding (paddingLeft, paddingBottom, etc.) on the graph and/or plot area frame. Padding the graph pushes everything in away from the edges of the graph. Padding the plot area frame pushes the plot area in so the axes and titles can hang outside the plot area (the area where the plots are drawn).
If you want to keep an axes pinned to a specific place, e.g., the edge of the graph, set up a floating axis. Otherwise make sure the orthogonal coordinate is set (it defaults to 0). For example, the orthogonal coordinate for the x-axis is the y-value where the x-axis crosses the y-axis.

What is the name of this plot?

I would like to redo this plot, which was published in one of the newspaper about Covid 19 death toll. I am not sure what kind of graph is this, I am assuming this is percent stacked area plot.
It is probably a streamgraph of some kind. So, a streamgraph is a type of stacked area chart. It represents the evolution of a numeric variable for several groups. Areas are usually displayed around a central axis, and edges are rounded to give a flowing shape.
I found it hard to install streamgraph from git hub repository, however, there is a ggplot alternative available called "ggTimeSeries". Below is the link for streamgraph R documentation.

How do i set the borders of an mplot3d, and also make the grid lines lie behind the plot?

I have this plot as part of a PySide program;
And there are two problems I have with it. The first is the ugly grey border. I know I can can get rid of it using the toolbar option, but I can't find a way to it programatically, or make it default to that when it plots...
The second issue, is that it is drawing the grid lines on top of the surface, which I would rather it didn't do... How do I get the grid lines to be drawn underneath the surface?
EDIT:
i'm using version 1.1.1;
this doesn't happen for all plot types - i.e.
that is fine.
If i try and plot multiple objects, then it can be a problem;
but i understand that's a limitation of mplot3d not being a try 3D engine, just a set of 3D images with a Z-Ordering, so the order of objects drawn becomes orientation dependant. (same graph - different angle: enter link description here).
The grid lines should surely always be at the bottom of the drawing though, no? Is there a way to force them to be?
Will.

Core Plot Charts Axis Position

I'm using core plot 1.0. Currently I'm making the X axis draw say 20 points above the bottom of the screen (so the labels can show up) by defining the Y range a little bit below 0.
Now I was asked that the origin point should be 0.0 and there should not be anything below 0 in both axes, so I'm now looking at the core plot documentation and scratching my head with the following question:
What property do I need to set to move the axes at the position I'd like to and also keep on showing the point labels and axis titles?
Thanks a lot!
I've found it so I leave it here for if somebody else needs help with this.
It is kind of tricky, you need to adjust the xRange and yRange on the plot space so it's big enough to draw the labels, the ticks and the titles and then adjust the visibleRange property on each axis. At this point you get the amount of axis you want and still displaying the information you need.
If someone knows a better way please share :)

How can I extend a line from two points to the edges of the plot area using Core Plot?

I'm using Core Plot to graph linear equations.
I would like to be able to supply two different data points and have a line drawn between them, but also extrapolated beyond the points themselves so that the line extends all the way to the edges of the plot area.
For example, given a 20x20 plot area with the origin centered and points at -5,-5 and 5,5, the line (green below) would extend all the way from -10,10 to 10,10 (blue below).
Is this possible? Is the best option just to find the plot range (which will be different each time) and find two points that are outside of it? I'm not sure if this will work; I have user interaction enabled and I want to make sure that the user can't accidentally pan far enough that the line will end.
Your idea of finding two endpoints outside the plot range is what I'd do. If you've limited the scrolling range, just pick points at the limits of that range. If not, you'll need to monitor changes to the plot space ranges with a plot space delegate and update the plot as needed.

Is it possible to animate markers in ArcMap?

I'm completely new to ArcGIS and ArcMap, but someone suggested this program to me for a project I'm working on.
I would like to animate individual entities on a map, and was wondering if it is possible to do so in ArcMap. I asked this earlier here and a member directed me to a tutorial on animating in ArcGIS. The animation in the guide was over a map spread (ie. each pixel on the map displays, say, a different color to indicate population data in the area). However I realized that if I zoom in a lot, eventually the image will degenerate into pixels, which is why I need an actual object to mark a certain point. I checked some online tutorials and it seems like we can place markers on the map. Can someone tell me if it is possible to animate these markers (for example via a for-loop)? And if so, could you point me in a direction where to start?
Thanks in advance!
You can animate layers in ArcMap is the short answer. Its not as simple as using the timeline feature in Google Earth for example though. But then ArcMap is much more than just a visualization tool.
This help page on the ESRI web help looks like a good place to start.
I'm not 100% sure what you mean by the image degenerates into pixels. Are you saying that the markers were single points in the layer. Unlike Google Earth you are not confined to simply plotting points on the map. You can draw completely arbitrary shapes in ArcMap, which can be defined to cover actual areas of the map, so when you zoom-in the shape gets larger.
The way you need to load data into ArcMap to produce an animation isn't too simple. There might be other ways to do this, but the way I know of is to generate a NetCDF file. This file contains a 3D matrix of layer data, where each layer is separated through time. Because you generate a matrix, you are effectively placing a raster image over the map. Thus if you want to cover a large area, each matrix becomes large, and you multiply that by the number of time slices you wish to animate over.
Once you have a NetCDF file with your data in however, getting ArcMap to animate it and produce say a .avi file is pretty simple.
You could try just loading some of the example NetCDF datasets into ArcMap to see how/if they will work to get you started.
Hope that helps.
The upcoming v10 will have better time-aware capabilities, which will allow for animation.
