Hi folks, Please note the 5% TICK marks along the bottom of the attached sample graph, which shows Holt-Winters threshold failures for outbound and inbound traffic (with confidence bands) simumtaneously... (I did this graph with RRGrapher.)
It surprised me that TICKs are drawn atop the lower boundary of the graph region instead of on the x-axis (zero value on y-axis). Also, if you graph a negative tick value, the ticks are actually plotted outside the graph region (overwriting the legends, etc.). It seems to me to be a bug that negative TICK values get plotted outside the graph region. I propose that it would be better, and more useful, if the TICKs were plotted as a percentage between the x-axis (zero on y-axis) and the top of the graph for positive values and as a percentage between the x-axis (zero on y-axis) and the top of the graph for negative values. I don't think this will break existing graphs that only plot positive ticks which is presumably the typical case. Since the negative values incorrectly plot outside the graph region, I'd like to fix that. Does anyone disagree that such a change would be a good way to fix this bug, and simultanously add a bit of functionality for these sort of outbound/inbound graphs? BTW, I haven't written a patch... I suspect it might be non-trivial for someone not familiar with that part of the code. If someone is willing to write it please let us know.
