Beautify the Graphs #27

Open driscoll42 opened 3 years ago

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe. Let's be real, the graphs are "eh" in terms of prettiness. They work, but they could look far nicer.

Describe the solution you'd like Don't know yet, I need to research data visualizations. If anyone has suggestions I'm very open, this is not a strong suit of mine.

Describe alternatives you've considered Leave them be.

Additional context None.

Move the legend to the right of the graph instead of inside of it

driscoll42 commented 3 years ago
  1. Give it a non-white background, thinking some kind of grey, not a solid block of grey though but a gradient:
  2. Move the legend outside the main graph, I'm thinking on the right.
  3. Move Total Sold chart to a graph the main one. Once I finish scraping active listings on eBay I'll make a rolling inventory graph.
  4. Make the median price like some non-blue color and thicker
  5. make the sold datapoints a bit transparent
