Description David 2018-02-19 11:43:58 UTC

In Ksysguard, if I go to the 'System Load' tab, I see graphs of the system's usage of resources. However, these only track very short periods of time, and oftentimes one wants to have a look at a longer timelapse.

Would be nice if the timelapse those graphs track could be configured somewhere.

You can do this, however it is a bit cumbersome:
Right click on the graph -> Settings:
Search for pixel per time period and set it to your desired value (I use 1, default is 8).
You need to do this for each row individually.

Example with vertical grid at 1 Minute

For a better overview, you can also set a vertical grid at your desired time.
Formula for calculation:
"Desired time" * "Pixels per time period" / "Tab update interval" = "Vertical Grid at"

For my attached example, I have it set at 60 secs:
60 secs * 1 / 0,5/secs = 120


If you need more help try the forums or matrix chat. HTH.
