unison_tolerance

Hi,

I'm having a problem with the y-axis not expanding to cover all the smoke.

On the attached graph, the average ping is around 14ms but the spikes will go up to 100-200ms.  I'd quite like
to be able to see them.

I understand that I can adjust the unison_tolerance variable but it doesn't seem to be making any
difference.  The default value is 2 but I'm unclear what I should be setting it to.  2, 20, 200, whatever, it
doesn't seem to change the graph.

Am I missing something?

Thanks,

Alex

Re: unison_tolerance

Hi Alex,

unison tolerance only affects the scaling of multiple charts ...
the effect of the smoke size on the graphscale is deliberately
limited to prevent excessive smoke from pushing the median down too
far ... but there are cases where this does not look optimal, I
agree ...

Re: unison_tolerance

Hi - digging up my old thread here!  Is there any way at all to fix the scale/y-axis on the graphs and disable the autoscaling?

Thanks again

Alex
