Some mistake in a graph #2

Open Pilleo opened 6 years ago

Pilleo commented 6 years ago

screenshot_20171126_141240 Two circles on the left are ram and swap charts of system load monitor. So about 2/3 of ram is used, about 1/3 is free, no swap is used at all. And it counts clockwise and uses the whole available height of a panel.
For ram chart in sysmon (two circles on the right for ram and swap) I am using black only for free physical memory, and variations of green for cache, application and cached. It counts counterclockwise, which is a bug for me, and it does not use the whole available space of a panel. But the worst thing is that dark area that the chart is beginning with. It simply must not be there. I do not use any dark colour except for black for free space, but the chart begins with a huge dark area. The longer PC works, the bigger it gets. It also seems that values are correct in a popup, and if that dark space at the start of that chart would be green, it would be ok. Here is another example, even worse screenshot_20171126_180834

Thank you.

It is probably due to that system load monitor knows what it shows, but sysmon doesn't. So it must handle to max value in some way.

There are two implemented option. The first one is manual setting it in Configuration "force max value". So for example for memory graph, you should put the amount of memory to it. The second (default) option is "adaptive" max value, that is derived from showed values and if some new value exceeds it, the max values is adjusted. I think that this is the think that you are observing.

In new version I added some examples of configuration so please look at it and let me know.

Thanks
