Graph question?

**GadgetBandit** · 01-08-2009, 10:18 PM

How would I slow a graph down? I would like to see a point added only every 6 minutes, giving me a 24 hr history.

Thanks,

<graph id="My Test Graph">
<line line_colour="255,70,210,70" line_width="3"></line>
<display size="240,99" location="38,365" page="0" z_order="0"></display>
<options value_minimum="0" value_maximum="120" time_maximum="300" axis="horizontal"></options>
<monitor timer="GUI Timer" target_type="variable" target_ID="temp 1"></monitor>
</graph>

change the max time setting

Cool. Thanks. I was way too timid in changing the value to notice any change.

There are 4 lines in the graph. Setting the max_time at 5000 does slow it, some. I'd like more, but where does the amount of data become a problem?. Since time is still relative, could a counter be used to sample the variable only after a certain number of cycles, then set max_time could be set back to a low number? I love to have a 24 hr curve.

It is pretty small memory footprint for each data point but I have never tried anything that big, you can always just try and see what happens

I set max time at 6000 and MDX dies with the error "Index out side bounds of array". Is there any way you can made graphing a function, so we can trigger adding a point, say using a counter?

Could a graph instance monitor something other than a timer? A variable set by "when", maybe? I could add a point an hour! Anything close?
