I've been playing around with trying to plot a boxplot using Oxyplot in WPF. I've managed to get a nice graph working in a completely new project, and am now attempting to show a similar graph in a new window of a project I'm currently working on and I'm not managing to get anything to show up. It's probably something very obvious, but I'm a bit lost. Here's where I'm at.
New Window I'm trying to open:
XAML

Title="DistancePlots" Height="300" Width="300">
<Window.DataContext>

</Window.DataContext>
<Grid>
<oxy:PlotView Model="{Binding MyModel}"/>
</Grid>

Opening the new window from the main window:
private void PlotButton_Click(object sender, RoutedEventArgs e)
{
DistancePlots plots = new DistancePlots();
plots.Show();
}
Currently this opens the new window, but the graph isn't showing up. If I use the exact same code in the main window of a project, it works. My understanding of WPF data binding is quite limited, so I think something could be going wrong there?
Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers
