Extrasensors charts

Post by AndyKF650 »

Hi Hans

I have been looking at my extra sensors charts and in particular the one detailing the dust levels and wind direction. Whilst the data is being shown on the chart correctly for the dust levels the average wind direction axis is a bit odd in that the East and West cardinal points are missing.

Initially I thought this may be a way to compact the axis so I enlarged the chart size to 750 and the compliler chart size to 750 in the cutils.ini file but this did not work. I looked at the other places the cardinal point might be shown but could not find a solution.

The wind direction chart on the home page has no issues with its axis.

Do you have any thoughts for a solution to this issue. Not major just intriguing.

Hi Andy,

I see what you mean. This is the consequence of having the direction (a scatter graph) combine with line charts.
I'll see what I can do to get it right. No idea why it does this so intriguing indeed.
And no, there is no solution by resizing the chart.

Which chart is it?
I assume it is something similar as on my site (chart: Richting)

Hi Hans

I have just reinstated the chart to the extra sensors group. When you looked earlier it was not in place and I could see it might cause confusion.

Yes it is like your chart Richting and is now in the ExtraDust chart in the group. The compass points are rather lacking in E and W cardinal points but the AvWindBearing chart in the same group shows all the cardinal points accross the full y axis and like yours does not fill the chart space.

Both charts are a mix of splines and scatter plots.

OK. Thanks. First experiments do not show an easy fix :(
I'll let you know how I get on. Will take some time.

Hi Andy,

Fixed in 3.19.0 beta 4, please look at it (and around) so if any issue it can be fixed before release.

Regards,
Hans
