| Description |
|
If we configure a negative multiplier on a numeric (unsigned) item, we always get the same value: 18.45E. The same works great with numeric float item. The issue I have is that I want to graph both incoming and outgoing network traffic on the same graph, so I use a negative multiplier for the outgoing, so the graph will be reversed. Until now, I used float item for traffic accounting (and the negative multiplier for outgoing), but, I hit bug |

This is a good space saving technique used extensively in Cricket with genDevConfig, Nagios, etc. Provides more information per graph. As you can add max + average on the same graph for both IN and OUT data. |

This issue looks more like a request for being able to select which side of the X-axis item values should be shown on a graph (i.e., show the values mirrored or not). By introducing the possibility for selecting the side of the X-axis we can have both real (positive, not garbled) values in the database and nice graphs. |

Indeed, I use negative multiplier as a work arround, having the possibility to choose the side of the X-axis would be a lot better. Regards, Daniel |
