Ah, this make sense ;-) Can I ask to change the wording in the manual (especially using the word 'offset' would have explained it to me). I also thought that stack was something like an AREA in the sense that it causes an area to be coloured, which it obviously doesn't. > The developers release knows how to do what you want; it can stack an AREA > on top of a line. Please try it out if you dare and do give feedback. How would the syntax be then ? Because ATM the AREA definition will cause it to start back at the baseline. If it wouldn't in the developers release, then it would break existing graphs I use ;) Thanks for your help, Alex ! -- dag wieers, [EMAIL PROTECTED], http://dag.wieers.com/ -- «Any errors in spelling, tact or fact are transmission errors» -- Unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Help mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Archive http://www.ee.ethz.ch/~slist/rrd-users WebAdmin http://www.ee.ethz.ch/~slist/lsg2.cgi
