SUMMARY The "data range" field for line charts only takes numbers of up to 5 digits. This is insufficient for things like memory, as memory is measured in KiB but modern systems can have GiB of memory, requiring more than 5 digit amounts of KiB to represent. Thus it is impossible to make a nice-looking line graph of memory usage. STEPS TO REPRODUCE 1. Create a Line Chart 2. Add an "application memory (KiB)" sensor (or similar) 3. Attempt to set data range to 0 to 16777220 KiB (= 16 GiB) OBSERVED RESULT The max of the data range is truncated to 16777 KiB, making the graph unreadable as the memory usage is always higher than ~16 MiB. EXPECTED RESULT The max of the data range is set to the requested amount and a readable graph results. SOFTWARE/OS VERSIONS Linux: 5.10.16-arch1-1 KDE Plasma Version: 5.20.5 KDE Frameworks Version: 5.79.0 Qt Version: 5.15.2 ADDITIONAL INFORMATION Using the automatic Y range does result in a graph with gigabytes on the axis. However, the maximum on this graph is about 42 GiB, and as my system only has 16 GiB, this is still an ugly (and difficult to read) graph.
Git commit 504dcbd225e26fe39f1f26d65ad477fc73558762 by Arjen Hiemstra. Committed on 23/02/2021 at 15:27. Pushed by ahiemstra into branch 'master'. Set min/max for Y axis range spinboxes to minimum/maximum possible value Some sensors have a range of gigabytes or terabytes, like memory and disk. Since the base unit for these is bytes, we end up needing a very large value in the range, which currently is not possible due to the spinbox limiting the value. Internally, spinbox seems to use an int so we can only store a value that fits within the range of an int, so we use that as min/max value. Longer term we want to have some ability to choose an actual "maximum" sensor but that's going to need more work.
