How to change range of y-axis on weight chart so it starts at something besides zero...

[NikR]

Hello,

Maybe I haven't looked hard enough or understood the documentation well enough, but I'm trying to figure out how to change the range of a chart that I'm using to track my weight.  I've actually completely forgotten how I set it up to begin with - maybe I added a long term metric called "weight" to my home screen? - but what bugs me is the y-axis ranges from 0 to 85 kilos.  What I'd like to do is have it range from 60 to 85 kilos, for example, but I'll be darned if I can figure it out.  Even better would be if it could display in pounds - because that's how I'm inputting my weight - but I'd settle for ointers on how to change the range.  Thoughts?

I've just been looking for the exact same thing with no luck.

I have added weight to the PMC and the axis defaults to a sensible range but on a metric chart it does not.

You cannot set the y-axis range, it uses the values to set automatically.

If its an important feature to you it might be worth raising a feature request on github.

You can click on the axis and zoom but it doesn't set the default range.

FWIW, the PMC *is* a metric chart :)

Thanks Mark.

So why would it be different on the PMC?

It isn't !

You can set baseline for shading, so for example TSB goes negative so I set basline to -999 for that to shade below, rather than up to zero.

May be a silly question, but it's not sharing an axis label with
anything else (that's setting the wider ranges) is it?

No, not on either the PMC or my separate Weight graph.

Oops, forgot to reply to the list..

Well, fwiw I've just replicated the same issue here.

Adding weight to the PMC gives an axis bounded by the values, but adding it to a new metric trends chart, the axis starts from 0.

No matter how I shuffle these curves I can only get these combinations of plotting (see images) - i.e I can't get both Aerobic & Anaerobic to start at their recorded minimum values, instead of one of them annoyingly starting at 0. I somehow managed to get around this by adding a 4th curve to the chart, but this feels like a akward workaround.

For the developers here with good insight - was anything ultimately requested & done about manual y-axis scaling the last couple of versions?

Thanks in advance for input!

FYI: best looking workaround I came up with if you're forced to add another curve to fix a existing misscaled line curve
