JS charts instead of static charts
-
The charts component of M2M2 (when viewing a data point or watch list) works very smoothly and I'm sure a lot of effort has been put into making it work this way.
I use it all the time but compared to tools like DGLux, librato, etc. it feels... very dated!However, perhaps the developers can consider switching to something like Rickshaw JS graphs:

But it is very lightweight and simple to implement.It can also update the graph values via AJAX or JSON/P which would be really nice in Mango, plus it can do things like tooltips.
Here are some examples: -
This is actually a feature we have planned in the near future and I agree will be an excellent upgrade.

Cool! How many releases before you think it is likely to get in?I saw that terrypacker has implemented something similar in his DFT dialog page in [url=https://github.com/terrypacker/mango-modules]one of his modules, 'control toolbox'.
There is [url=http://forum.infiniteautomation.com/forum/posts/list/1648.page#6768]a screenshot in this post.
Maybe most of the hard work is already done.
