Flot should alias data #739

Open GoogleCodeExporter opened 8 years ago

GoogleCodeExporter commented 8 years ago 
Right now flot will let me happily plot 500 data points for a single pixel on 
the screen. Instead of the data producers implementing the aliasing to reduce 
those 500 points into 1 point per pixel the graphing engine (Flot?) should 
provide an option to automatically alias data. I don't see any benefit in 
plotting multiple points per pixel. Perhaps I am naive in thinking that a 
generic aliasing solution can be implemented for all kinds of graphs? Or maybe 
its not Flot at fault here...

No, it certainly makes sense to include in the library.  It hasn't been done 
mainly due to time constraints.  If it was implemented, it should be as a 
plugin, since I don't think the functionality is critical enough to justify an 
increase in size and complexity to the core library.
