[solved] Ability to disable --slope-mode in a per graph/temp

Post by Spingo »

This request has been spurred on from http://forums.cacti.net/viewtopic.php?p=95095#95095.

Don't get me wrong - I love anti-aliased graphs. They sure are pretty. And it makes my graphs look so much cleaner in most cases.

The trouble with the last paragraph was how I mentioned the word "most". This implies that there are cases where anti-aliasing is not desired. A classic case is for colour-coded percentages. The problem with anti-aliasing in this context is detailed in the post mentioned above.

We can already set various arguments to the "rrdtool graph" command on a per template or per graph basis (e.g, --alt-autoscale-max or --alt-autoscale, --logarithmic, etc). Can we also have the option to disable --slope-mode on a per graph and per template basis?

Wow, that's one botched Graph! I believe that there is already an opened bug request on this. Let me give it some attention when I get back to town next week.

For those wondering, I'm still here, but lost in the shadows. Yearning for less bugs. Who want's a Cacti 1.3/2.0? Streams anyone?
