Merging multiple pointpairlist

Question

I have a .wav file and I am plotting waveform using ZedGraph. I am calculating the energies of .wav file of each second and if energy is less then 4 I want to draw the sample in different color. I have created two PointPairLlist and LineItem to do this but there is a problem while merging these two list. Here is my code and how my graph appears.

LineItem myCurveAudio;
LineItem myCurveAudio2;
PointPairList list1 = new PointPairList();
PointPairList list2 = new PointPairList();
while(true)
{
for (int i = 0; i < fmainBuffer.Length; i++)
{
   float segmentSquare = fmainBuffer[i] * fmainBuffer[i];
   listOfSquaredSegment.Add(segmentSquare);
}
float energy = (float)Math.Sqrt(listOfSquaredSegment.Sum());
if (energy < 4)
{
    for (int i = 0; i < read; i += (int)window)
    {
       list1.Add((float)(count / ((float)read / (float)window)), fmainBuffer[i]);
       count++;
    }
}
else
{
   for (int i = 0; i < read; i += (int)window)
   {
       list4.Add((float)(count / ((float)read / (float)window)), fmainBuffer[i]);
       count++;
   }
}
}
zgc.MasterPane.PaneList[1].XAxis.Scale.MaxAuto = true;
zgc.MasterPane.PaneList[1].XAxis.Scale.MinAuto = true;
zgc.MasterPane.PaneList[1].XAxis.Type = AxisType.Linear;
zgc.MasterPane.PaneList[1].XAxis.Scale.Format = "";
zgc.MasterPane.PaneList[1].XAxis.Scale.Min = 0;
myCurveAudio = zgc.MasterPane.PaneList[1].AddCurve(null, list1, Color.Lime, SymbolType.None);
myCurveAudio2 = zgc.MasterPane.PaneList[1].AddCurve(null, list4, Color.Red, SymbolType.None);

The lines of myCurveAudio and myCurveAudio2 intersect like in the picture.

How can I merge these two list preventing those intersections?

I have also tried to add `double.NaN to end of the lists but it did not work.

Gradient Fills to Color Line Segments

This tutorial helped me to solve my problem. There is no need two or more PointPairList Here is my code:

float energy = (float)Math.Sqrt(listOfSquaredSegment.Sum());
for (int i = 0; i < fmainBuffer.Length; i += (int)window)
{
     listaudio.Add((float)(count / ((float)8000 / (float)window)) / 5, fmainBuffer[i], energy > 4 ? 2.0 : 1.0);
     count++;
}
myCurveAudio = zgc.MasterPane.PaneList[1].AddCurve(null, listaudio, Color.Lime, SymbolType.None);
Fill fill = new Fill(Color.Lime, Color.Red);
fill.RangeMin = 1;
fill.RangeMax = 2;
fill.Type = FillType.GradientByZ;
myCurveAudio.Line.GradientFill = fill;

Try the code below, I Modified your code based on "this thread"

LineItem myCurveAudio;
LineItem myCurveAudio2;
PointPairList list1 = new PointPairList();
PointPairList list2 = new PointPairList();
double lastAddedHighEnergy = double.NaN;
double lastAddedLowEnergy = double.NaN;
while (true)
{
    for (int i = 0; i < fmainBuffer.Length; i++)
    {
        float segmentSquare = fmainBuffer[i] * fmainBuffer[i];
        listOfSquaredSegment.Add(segmentSquare);
    }
    float energy = (float)Math.Sqrt(listOfSquaredSegment.Sum());
    if (energy < 4)
    {
        for (int i = 0; i < read; i += (int)window)
        {
            lastAddedLowEnergy = (double)(count / ((double)read / (double)window));
            if (lastAddedHighEnergy != double.NaN)
            {
                list1.Add(lastAddedHighEnergy + ((lastAddedLowEnergy - lastAddedHighEnergy) / 2.0), double.NaN);
                lastAddedHighEnergy = double.NaN;
            }

            list1.Add(lastAddedLowEnergy, fmainBuffer[i]);
            count++;
        }
    }
    else
    {
        for (int i = 0; i < read; i += (int)window)
        {
            lastAddedHighEnergy = (double)(count / ((double)read / (double)window));
            if (lastAddedLowEnergy != double.NaN)
            {
                list2.Add(lastAddedLowEnergy + ((lastAddedHighEnergy - lastAddedLowEnergy) / 2.0), double.NaN);
                lastAddedLowEnergy = double.NaN;
            }

            list2.Add(lastAddedHighEnergy, fmainBuffer[i]);
            count++;
        }
    }
}

zgc.MasterPane.PaneList[1].XAxis.Scale.MaxAuto = true;
zgc.MasterPane.PaneList[1].XAxis.Scale.MinAuto = true;
zgc.MasterPane.PaneList[1].XAxis.Type = AxisType.Linear;
zgc.MasterPane.PaneList[1].XAxis.Scale.Format = "";
zgc.MasterPane.PaneList[1].XAxis.Scale.Min = 0;
myCurveAudio = zgc.MasterPane.PaneList[1].AddCurve(null, list1, Color.Lime, SymbolType.None);
myCurveAudio2 = zgc.MasterPane.PaneList[1].AddCurve(null, list2, Color.Red, SymbolType.None);

If the above code is not worked, follow the steps given in this thread

This did not work. There are still intersections. Also I think the thread that you linked explains same think with what my code does. – Shrieve

did you tried #12504246 – Davey

I modified the above code. Previously I didn't take the center point for plot the empty point for breaking the line. Now, I calculated the center X-Axis point and added the empty point in the curve. Try the above code now.. – Davey

I tried both the link that you have shared and your code. There are still instersections because I have to merge 6 or more data according to my file length. This code only prevent intersection of first two part of data. – Shrieve
