Plot for progressive rain accumulation

[DR]

I have looked through again the Customization guide, the Image Files
section and don't find a pre-programmed option for a plot which I'd like
to have.

There are a lot, but when it comes to rain, the hour  by hour plot shows
when and how much, but I'm hoping to find a plot that shows the more (to
me) traditional graphing of rain, starting at zero and then as rain came
in, a steadily increasing line which would show total to that time, but
also the slope of the line would indicate the rate.  As the rain
stopped, the line would level off and continue on until more rain
started, then continue to increase.  Most of my experience is with these
types of  graphs and sort of like knowing how to read an analogue watch
vs. digital, the data are there, but what  you grew up with is more
instinctive for me at least.


During the Belchertown discussion on lightning, I think there was a
background chart with that type of progressive rain display showing.


Is there a plot that I can put into my Seasons skin to allow this plot,
or is the only one available the one shown, where the bar graph shown is
the only one available?


Thanks.  Dale

something like this should work:
(you need to put your own labels 😉)

       [[[dayrain4]]]
            # Make sure the y-axis increment is at least 0.02 for the
rain plot
            yscale = None, None, 0.02
            plot_type = bar   #line
            width = 2

            [[[[rain1]]]]              #WH40 rain
                  data_binding = wx_binding
                  data_type = rain
                aggregate_type = cumulative
                aggregate_interval = 300
                label = Rain WH40

Was it this one DR?

Sorry didn't attach the image

Thank you.  I will try this when I get to play a bit this afternoon.


The next thing, of course, is hoping for rain!  We have entered a
moderate drought here, with Minnesota being worse off than we are here
in Western Wisconsin.    Some places there have had a trace or few
tenths over the last month or more.


Maybe this code will attract a shower or two!  Thanks.  Dale

Kevin,   Yes, that is the one.  

After I get my WeeWx updated and tweaked, I will work on getting the Belcher 1.3.1 installed.  Dale
