[INFO] Black graphs look better than white! :)

[gandalf]

Kind of this will be part of 088. Colors may be set globally and/or per graph template. Many more rrdtool options will be supported.

Talking about an ancient post

hey! I only resurrected a 4 monther; plus, it's 10x more functionality than what previously existed! (even if the original was 5 years ago!)

sorry for bumping this up...

will this be part of the upcoming 0.8.8? I'm particullary interested in the possibility of changing the colors for graph items.
Will we get the possibility of integrating a background image for graph items too?

Yes. All available color options of current rrdtool will be supported. The code is already in! And, you will be presented with a colorpicker to easy handling.

I really appreciate the time you spent in plugging in this code. Awesome work.

Question:
I would like to remove/change the color of the border that is around every graph (it is basically 1 pixel wide) where would i find this code to modify it?

I attempted to add:

/* basic graph options */
$graph_opts .=
"--imgformat=" . $image_types{$graph["image_format_id"]} . RRD_NL .
"--start=$graph_start" . RRD_NL .
"--end=$graph_end" . RRD_NL .
"-c CANVAS#000000 -c FONT#FFFFFF -c BACK#000000 --title=\"" . $graph["title_cache"] . "\"" . RRD_NL .
/* "--border=0 */
"--title=" . cacti_escapeshellarg($graph["title_cache"]) . RRD_NL .
"$rigid" .
"--base=" . $graph["base_value"] . RRD_NL .
"--height=$graph_height" . RRD_NL .
"--width=$graph_width" . RRD_NL .
"$scale" .
"$unit_value" .
"$unit_exponent_value" .
"$graph_legend" .
"--vertical-label=" . cacti_escapeshellarg($graph["vertical_label"]) . RRD_NL;

and it borked everything...

Help please???

EDIT: I commented it out so it would not impact the production graphs...

5 year necro....

Did this just fade away into the ether, or is skins/themes still in the works?
It looked promising, but I can see where it could quickly turn into a nightmare.

Yes, Cacti themes and graph themes are already in Git, and will be available once 1.0 is released.

Cigamit,

Can you kindly point out where and how in Cacti-1 we can change the color of graphs to for instance the black color you have.

i have looked under Settings > Visual but nothing there seems to indicate how the graph color can be changed.

I will appreciate this info

Thanks

In 1.X, that is just the default graph color scheme for anyone using the "Dark Theme".
If you want to tweak the specific settings for a theme, you can take a look at
include/themes/<theme_name>/rrdtheme.php

Cigamit,

Thanks very much this was very helpful.

I must mention that you folks at the Cacti Group have done such an awesome job with 1.X. !!!

Thanks again.
