Graphs acting odd after yum update.

Post by motrus »

CentOS 6.5 64bit - Cacti 0.8.8h

Browse to graphs on tree, page looks normal.
Hover directly over a graph, cursor changes to giant plus sign.
Select that graph while hovering over, image changes to blurry straight
line version of it self.
Press the "Clear" button, next to "Refresh" and graph returns to normal.

Hover over header of graph (just above the image) and cursor remains normal.
Select that graph using that header and you drill down to the Daily, Weekly,
etc... graphs. All look fine.

Any ideas?

It would seem that you are just zooming in, which is what the + cursor is indicating. You should click and drag left / right to highlight an area and it will zoom in. Since you are just clicking and letting go it is highlighting to an extremely small area.

Thanks for the bread crumb, that helped. Being somewhat new to this, I didn't even know about that zoom feature.

Looks like it takes 5 or so Zoom outs (x32) to bring the graph back to a readable level.
(same as hitting the "Clear" button at the top, next to "Refresh")

So the question now: Is there a default zoom setting for that first page (graphs grouped on a leaf)? Maybe some config file?
I didn't see any GUI settings.

Or can that feature be turned off? The giant Plus sign must die.......

I'm using 1.0, so it may be a bit different than the 0.8.8 branch, but I don't believe you can completely disable Zoom (thus the plus sign). If you right click on the graph when you get the plus sign though, there are a few options, like default zoom level, and Quick / Advanced (I use Advanced, it requires 3 clicks to zoom instead of click / drag).
