[rrd-users] Need a way to show 2(or more) lines on a graph that have nearly identical values
I am plotting 4 lines on a graph on a 0-100 Y axis In many cases the lines have nearly identical values and it is difficult to see them. (2 of the four lines are not shown because the DS's are empty) http://jacktavares.com/rrd/unstacked.png I know that I can STACK them, but then I see lines that look like this http://jacktavares.com/rrd/stacked.png and it looks like the line above has a value of ~20, when in fact they both have a value of ~10 doing them as AREA has the same problem. Other than putting them in individual graphs, am I missing a simple solution?

This is what STACKing does. It stacks line #2 on top of line #1. doing them as AREA has the same problem. Same as above. area #2 is stacked above area #1. Other than putting them in individual graphs, am I missing a simple solution? Hmmm ... In this case (CPU utilization of 4 severs I assume) I would use individual graphs. HTH, Andreas. -- Dipl.-Ing.

What about converting 2 of your sets of data to negative values and plot them below your typical '0' x-axis. This would result in having only 2 lines very close together in 2 different spots on your graph as opposed to 4 all together in the same spot. shrug David On 25/09/2007, Jack Tavares [EMAIL PROTECTED] wrote: I am plotting 4 lines on a graph on a 0-100 Y axis In many cases the lines have nearly identical values and it is difficult to see them.
