Does "LINE1:100#FF0000:threshold" not work anymore? It used to work and was intended to work that way. Your argument about a HRULE that is only shown when it is inside the graph scale is, if true, a legitimate argument against deprecating HRULE. It has been a while since I last looked at the source. I do not remember if HRULE does (did?) change the upper and/or lower visible range. So far deprecating was only mentioned in the documentation. HRULE will still work as it used to, so I guess it is easy to undo deprecating this. OTOH: with "LINE3:100#FF0000" you can have a very visible line; try that with HRULE. -- Alex van den Bogaerdt http://www.vandenbogaerdt.nl/rrdtool/ -- Unsubscribe mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Help mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Archive http://lists.ee.ethz.ch/rrd-users WebAdmin http://lists.ee.ethz.ch/lsg2.cgi
