Description Nicolas Brisset 2005-09-16 12:07:10 UTC
Version:           1.1.0 (using KDE 3.4.0, compiled sources)
Compiler:          gcc version 3.4.3
OS:                SunOS (sun4u) release 5.8

There are already many options in the way X axis values can be interpreted (in the plot dialog). It would be nice if double values in the form hhmmss.ms could be converted to real time values, so that changing e.g. from 123059.900 to 123100.000 does not produce a jump.

The problem with this suggestion is that all the other supported date/time formats provide an absolute date and time, whereas your proposed format provides only a time. Further, your proposed format is not a standard of any sort.

A workaround would be to use the expression system to convert the hhmmss.ms to hour values or something similar.
