How to customise the chart widget?

[opus (Jürgen Baginski)]

High,

I’ m trying to use this UI. Is it possible to customise the chart widget?

No.

If you want customizable charts follow the InfluxDB+Grafana tutorial.

InfluxDB+Grafana persistence and graphing

Store your openHAB item states in an InfluxDB time-series datastore and create highly customizable diagrams with Grafana. These diagrams can in return be included in your sitemap as images. [image] Following this guide, you will install InfluxDB and Grafana, make openHAB store data in an InfluxDB database, make Grafana fetch data from the InfluxDB database and draw diagrams. Finally you can include these diagrams in your openHAB sitemap. Table of Content Starting Point InfluxDB Installation…

Or use Habmin2 which has some nice charting built in that is more customizable than the default charting servlet.

Thanks for the answer.
As far as I understand you would have to use a template to show one of those charts in habpanel.
I was curious if the native chart widget is customisable at all. The string at right ( presented by rrd4j) hints it would be.
I’m happy so far with using the rrd4j database and would like to stick with it.

[Edit]
As usual I scanned the whole reply, b that I missed this two letter word at the beginning. Got it.

You’ll be able to choose the color and whether you want a line or an area, but I don’t plan much else for charts in the short term. HABmin has better charting and is more suited for analysis use cases than HABPanel (whose primary purpose is be a fancy remote, not a full-fledged charting solution).

No problem for me, I’m just exploiting what is possible.
Since the WAF seems to be good (at least in my case), I’d probably stick to HABPanel as the UI.
