Pressure trend graph

Post by THX »

I'm hoping this falls under the wish list category.

Is there anyway the pressure trend graph can include more than just the 30.0 pressure line?

The graphs auto-scale, and I'm afraid that was the best I could do for inches. I imagine there probably is a way to get them to work better in inches, but I haven't found it yet! I'll have another look at it...

I've attempted to improve this in the latest build (901). Give it a try and see how it looks.

I was noticing that the little pressure trend graph also appears to be stuck on the 30.00 in line.

Was this by chance fixed in a subsequent release (later than 1.8.9 (905))?

It looks like it's using a scale of 2 inches either side of the max and min, the same as for mb, which isn't a great deal of use for inches. I'll see what I can do.

Thanks Steve. Looks much better.

BTW, on a tangential question, what determines the version increment to go from say v1.8.8 to v1.8.9?

There's not really any hard rule. Every so often I decide that the current beta should become the 'release' version, and then I start again with the betas with a version increment. The tricky part with this one will be deciding whether to go to 1.8.10 or 1.9.0 :lol:
