Too many y-axis labels on low values

[mikl]

I have a graph with 30 days of data, with only a single day having a value above 0 (namely 3). This produces a rather odd presentation, where the y-axis has labels for every .1 value (i.e. 1.1, 1.2, 1.3, etc.) as you can see in the screenshot below.

Not only are the fractional labels rather irrelevant to the data, there are also too many of them to fit the y-axis, causing them to overlap…

Is there some setting I can set when I know that all my data is integer, so I don't want fractional labels?

Alex, in my fork https://github.com/uiteoi/ico, I went to a great extent to solve all issues related to value labels calculations, including this issue but many others as well. I have tested this extensively and there is no outstanding issues.

I have componentized the value labels, you will find the code under Ico.Component.ValueLabels.

Jean: thanks, I'll take a look

For now I've added options so you can control these values. Now you can specify label_step and it'll increment each label by 1 instead of 0.1.

  new Ico.LineGraph($('miki'), [0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 0, 3],  { label_count: 3, label_step: 1, font_size: 10, colour: '#ff0099', labels: ['2/7', '4/7', '6/7', '8/7', '10/7', '12/7', '14/7', '16/7', '18/7', '20/7', '22/7', '24/7', '26/7', '28/7', '30/7', '1/8'] });
