Hi,
Can I still link the scatter points with lines for readability?
I'm not
sure why an API would require a "y" for every "x". I've rarely
worked with
data sets that follow an exact set of X coords.
Then where would the point go if you had no y value?

It should simply plot the points (and connecting lines)
independently. It should also consider the min/max values of all data
sets and create those automatically if you don't set the min/max
manually.
I wasn't saying that I lacked X values -- rather, I don't have a Y for
every X of every other item. For instance, say I logged information
at 10 o'clock AM for some events, while I didn't log until 10:30 for
other events. I don't want to be forced to place something in 10:00
AM just to make the event spacing work.
Perhaps I'm simply asking the wrong question. I find that's often the
case with me. Creating it with GD would be simple enough, as the idea
isn't rocket science. I simply lack time after my current phase to do
so, which is why I was hoping something intuitive existed so I could
jump right to it.
To restate, the following does *NOT* apply to any data I have:
X-TIMES(8, 9, 10, 11)
DATA-Y1(200,100,400,600)
DATA-Y2(40,23,12,84)
...as DATA-Y2 didn't log data at 8 and 10, but rather at 8:30 and
10:30. Therefore, while I certainly can use an X axis labeled from 8
am to 11 am, I need different X values for some DATA sets. I need to
be able to plot completely independent X,Y values -- and still connect
them with lines to see trends. Reasonable, no?
