Re: Is FLOT suitable as a replacement for Open Flash Chart 2

[DNS]

The square-wave plot is actually very using using Flot's 'steps' option.  The text labels on the y-axis requires a little more work - you'll probably need to provide a custom ticks array - but it's not a big deal.  So I don't immediately see any reason why Flot couldn't produce that plot.

Thanks for your reply and sorry about the delay in answering but I had to go abroad for work.

 

I have investigated a bit further and it looks like Flot should be able to do all I need.

 

Thanks again, Bill

Hi everybody, I am looking for an alternative JavaScript Charting function that doesn't rely on Abode Flash, I have been using Open Flash Chart 2 but that uses Flash.  I have just discovered FLOT and it looks like it could suit my needs.

 

For my first project with FLOT I would like to convert an existing graph (attached) that basically consists of many plot lines each of has data points that are in one of two states (off/on), I have quickly looked at the FLOT documentation but could not find answers to a couple of questions.

 

1 Can I position each graph data line at different vertical positions on the graph, stacked one above another, or do I need to add a vertical offset value to each data point.

 

2 Can I add individual Y labels at the correct heights to match each line.

 

Thanks in advance for any help you can give me.
