Code using dual axes should be changed from +using x2axis/y2axis in the options to using an array (although +backwards-compatibility hooks are in place). For instance, + + { + xaxis: { ... }, x2axis: { ... }, + yaxis: { ... }, y2axis: { ... } + } + +becomes + + { + xaxes: [ { ... }, { ... } ], + yaxes: [ { ... }, { ... } ] + } + +Note that if you're just using one axis, continue to use the +xaxis/yaxis directly (it now sets the default settings for the +arrays). Plugins touching the axes must be ported to take the extra +axes into account, check the source to see some examples. + +A related change is that the visibility of axes is now auto-detected. +So if you were relying on an axis to show up even without any data in +the chart, you now need to set the axis "show" option explicitly. + +"tickColor" on the grid options is now deprecated in favour of a +corresponding option on the axes, so { grid: { tickColor: "#000" }} +becomes { xaxis: { tickColor: "#000"}, yaxis: { tickColor: "#000"} }, +but if you just configure a base color Flot will now autogenerate a +tick color by adding transparency. Backwards-compatibility hooks are +in place. + +Final note: now that IE 9 is coming out with canvas support, you may +want to adapt the excanvas include to skip loading it in IE 9 (the +examples have been adapted thanks to Ryley Breiddal). An alternative +to excanvas using Flash has also surfaced, if your graphs are slow in +IE, you may want to give it a spin: + + http://code.google.com/p/flashcanvas/ + + +Changes: + +- Support for specifying a bottom for each point for line charts when + filling them, this means that an arbitrary bottom can be used + instead of just the x axis (based on patches patiently provided by + Roman V. Prikhodchenko). +- New fillbetween plugin that can compute a bottom for a series from + another series, useful for filling areas between lines (see new + example percentiles.html for a use case). +- More predictable handling of gaps for the stacking plugin, now all + undefined ranges are skipped. +- Stacking plugin can stack horizontal bar charts. +- Navigate plugin now redraws the plot while panning instead of only + after the fact (can be disabled by setting the pan.frameRate option + to null), raised by lastthemy (issue 235). +- Date formatter now accepts %0m and %0d to get a zero-padded month or + day (issue raised by Maximillian Dornseif). +- Revamped internals to support an unlimited number of axes, not just + dual (sponsored by Flight Data Services, + www.flightdataservices.com). +- New setting on axes, "tickLength", to control the size of ticks or + turn them off without turning off the labels. +- Axis labels are now put in container divs with classes, for instance + labels in the x axes can be reached via ".xAxis .tickLabel". +- Support for setting the color of an axis (sponsored by Flight Data + Services, www.flightdataservices.com). +- Tick color is now auto-generated as the base color with some + transparency (unless you override it). +- Support for aligning ticks in the axes with "alignTicksWithAxis" to + ensure that they appear next to each other rather than in between, + at the expense of possibly awkward tick steps (sponsored by Flight + Data Services, www.flightdataservices.com). +- Support for customizing the point type through a callback when + plotting points and new symbol plugin with some predefined point + types (sponsored by Utility Data Corporation). +- Resize plugin for automatically redrawing when the placeholder + changes size, e.g. on window resizes (sponsored by Novus Partners). + A resize() method has been added to plot object facilitate this. +- Support Infinity/-Infinity for plotting asymptotes by hacking it + into +/-Number.MAX_VALUE (reported by rabaea.mircea). +- Support for restricting navigate plugin to not pan/zoom an axis (based + on patch by kkaefer). +- Support for providing the drag cursor for the navigate plugin as an + option (based on patch by Kelly T. Moore). +- Options for controlling whether an axis is shown or not (suggestion + by Timo Tuominen) and whether to reserve space for it even if it + isn't shown. +- New attribute $.plot.version with the Flot version as a string. +- The version comment is now included in the minified jquery.flot.min.js. +- New options.grid.minBorderMargin for adjusting the minimum margin + provided around the border (based on patch by corani, issue 188). +- Refactor replot behaviour so Flot tries to reuse the existing + canvas, adding shutdown() methods to the plot (based on patch by + Ryley Breiddal, issue 269). This prevents a memory leak in Chrome + and hopefully makes replotting faster for those who are using $.plot + instead of .setData()/.draw(). Also update jQuery to 1.5.1 to + prevent IE leaks fixed in jQuery. +- New real-time line chart example. + +- New hooks: drawSeries, shutdown + +Bug fixes: + +- Fixed problem with findNearbyItem and bars on top of each other + (reported by ragingchikn, issue 242). +- Fixed problem with ticks and the border (based on patch from + ultimatehustler69, issue 236). +- Fixed problem with plugins adding options to the series objects. +- Fixed a problem introduced in 0.6 with specifying a gradient with { + brightness: x, opacity: y }. +- Don't use $.browser.msie, check for getContext on the created canvas + element instead and try to use excanvas if it's not found (fixes IE + 9 compatibility). +- highlight(s, index) was looking up the point in the original s.data + instead of in the computed datapoints array, which breaks with + plugins that modify the datapoints (such as the stacking plugin). + Issue 316 reported by curlypaul924. +- More robust handling of axis from data passed in from getData() + (problem reported by Morgan). +- Fixed problem with turning off bar outline (issue 253, fix by Jordi + Castells). +- Check the selection passed into setSelection in the selection + plugin, to guard against errors when synchronizing plots (fix by Lau + Bech Lauritzen). +- Fix bug in crosshair code with mouseout resetting the crosshair even + if it is locked (fix by Lau Bech Lauritzen and Banko Adam). +- Fix bug with points plotting using line width from lines rather than + points. +- Fix bug with passing non-array 0 data (for plugins that don't expect + arrays, patch by vpapp1). +- Fix errors in JSON in examples so they work with jQuery 1.4.2 + (fix reported by honestbleeps, issue 357). +- Fix bug with tooltip in interacting.html, this makes the tooltip + much smoother (fix by bdkahn). Fix related bug inside highlighting + handler in Flot. +- Use closure trick to make inline colorhelpers plugin respect + jQuery.noConflict(true), renaming the global jQuery object (reported + by Nick Stielau). +- Listen for mouseleave events and fire a plothover event with empty + item when it occurs to drop highlights when the mouse leaves the + plot (reported by by outspirit). +- Fix bug with using aboveData with a background (reported by + amitayd). +- Fix possible excanvas leak (report and suggested fix by tom9729). +- Fix bug with backwards compatibility for shadowSize = 0 (report and + suggested fix by aspinak). +- Adapt examples to skip loading excanvas (fix by Ryley Breiddal). +- Fix bug that prevent a simple f(x) = -x transform from working + correctly (fix by Mike, issue 263). +- Fix bug in restoring cursor in navigate plugin (reported by Matteo + Gattanini, issue 395). +- Fix bug in picking items when transform/inverseTransform is in use + (reported by Ofri Raviv, and patches and analysis by Jan and Tom + Paton, issue 334 and 467). +- Fix problem with unaligned ticks and hover/click events caused by + padding on the placeholder by hardcoding the placeholder padding to + 0 (reported by adityadineshsaxena, Matt Sommer, Daniel Atos and some + other people, issue 301). +- Update colorhelpers plugin to avoid dying when trying to parse an + invalid string (reported by cadavor, issue 483). + + +Flot 0.6 +-------- + +API changes: + +1. Selection support has been moved to a plugin. Thus if you're +passing selection: { mode: something }, you MUST include the file +jquery.flot.selection.js after jquery.flot.js. This reduces the size +of base Flot and makes it easier to customize the selection as well as +improving code clarity. The change is based on a patch from andershol. + +2. In the global options specified in the $.plot command, +"lines", "points", "bars" and "shadowSize" have been moved to a +sub-object called "series", i.e. + + $.plot(placeholder, data, { lines: { show: true }}) + +should be changed to + + $.plot(placeholder, data, { series: { lines: { show: true }}}) + +All future series-specific options will go into this sub-object to +simplify plugin writing. Backward-compatibility code is in place, so +old code should not break. + +3. "plothover" no longer provides the original data point, but instead +a normalized one, since there may be no corresponding original point. + +4. Due to a bug in previous versions of jQuery, you now need at least +jQuery 1.2.6. But if you can, try jQuery 1.3.2 as it got some +improvements in event handling speed. + + +Changes: + +- Added support for disabling interactivity for specific data series + (request from Ronald Schouten and Steve Upton). + +- Flot now calls $() on the placeholder and optional legend container + passed in so you can specify DOM elements or CSS expressions to make + it easier to use Flot with libraries like Prototype or Mootools or + through raw JSON from Ajax responses. + +- A new "plotselecting" event is now emitted while the user is making + a selection. + +- The "plothover" event is now emitted immediately instead of at most + 10 times per second, you'll have to put in a setTimeout yourself if + you're doing something really expensive on this event. + +- The built-in date formatter can now be accessed as + $.plot.formatDate(...) (suggestion by Matt Manela) and even + replaced. + +- Added "borderColor" option to the grid (patch from Amaury Chamayou + and patch from Mike R. Williamson). + +- Added support for gradient backgrounds for the grid, take a look at + the "setting options" example (based on patch from Amaury Chamayou, + issue 90). + +- Gradient bars (suggestion by stefpet). + +- Added a "plotunselected" event which is triggered when the selection + is removed, see "selection" example (suggestion by Meda Ugo); + +- The option legend.margin can now specify horizontal and vertical + margins independently (suggestion by someone who's annoyed). + +- Data passed into Flot is now copied to a new canonical format to + enable further processing before it hits the drawing routines. As a + side-effect, this should make Flot more robust in the face of bad + data (and fixes issue 112). + +- Step-wise charting: line charts have a new option "steps" that when + set to true connects the points with horizontal/vertical steps + instead of diagonal lines. + +- The legend labelFormatter now passes the series in addition to just + the label (suggestion by Vincent Lemeltier). + +- Horizontal bars (based on patch by Jason LeBrun). + +- Support for partial bars by specifying a third coordinate, i.e. they + don't have to start from the axis. This can be used to make stacked + bars. + +- New option to disable the (grid.show). + +- Added pointOffset method for converting a point in data space to an + offset within the placeholder. + +- Plugin system: register an init method in the $.flot.plugins array + to get started, see PLUGINS.txt for details on how to write plugins + (it's easy). There are also some extra methods to enable access to + internal state. + +- Hooks: you can register functions that are called while Flot is + crunching the data and doing the plot. This can be used to modify + Flot without changing the source, useful for writing plugins. Some + hooks are defined, more are likely to come. + +- Threshold plugin: you can set a threshold and a color, and the data + points below that threshold will then get the color. Useful for + marking data below 0, for instance. + +- Stack plugin: you can specify a stack key for each series to have + them summed. This is useful for drawing additive/cumulative graphs + with bars and (currently unfilled) lines. + +- Crosshairs plugin: trace the mouse position on the axes, enable with + crosshair: { mode: "x"} (see the new tracking example for a use). + +- Image plugin: plot prerendered images. + +- Navigation plugin for panning and zooming a plot. + +- More configurable grid. + +- Axis transformation support, useful for non-linear plots, e.g. log + axes and compressed time axes (like omitting weekends). + +- Support for twelve-hour date formatting (patch by Forrest Aldridge). + +- The color parsing code in Flot has been cleaned up and split out so + it's now available as a separate jQuery plugin. It's included inline + in the Flot source to make dependency managing easier. This also + makes it really easy to use the color helpers in Flot plugins. + +Bug fixes: + +- Fixed two corner-case bugs when drawing filled curves (report and + analysis by Joshua Varner). +- Fix auto-adjustment code when setting min to 0 for an axis where the + dataset is completely flat on that axis (report by chovy). +- Fixed a bug with passing in data from getData to setData when the + secondary axes are used (issue 65, reported by nperelman). +- Fixed so that it is possible to turn lines off when no other chart + type is shown (based on problem reported by Glenn Vanderburg), and + fixed so that setting lineWidth to 0 also hides the shadow (based on + problem reported by Sergio Nunes). +- Updated mousemove position expression to the latest from jQuery (bug + reported by meyuchas). +- Use CSS borders instead of background in legend (fix printing issue 25 + and 45). +- Explicitly convert axis min/max to numbers. +- Fixed a bug with drawing marking lines with different colors + (reported by Khurram). +- Fixed a bug with returning y2 values in the selection event (fix + by exists, issue 75). +- Only set position relative on placeholder if it hasn't already a + position different from static (reported by kyberneticist, issue 95). +- Don't round markings to prevent sub-pixel problems (reported by Dan + Lipsitt). +- Make the grid border act similarly to a regular CSS border, i.e. + prevent it from overlapping the plot itself. This also fixes a + problem with anti-aliasing when the width is 1 pixel (reported by + Anthony Ettinger). +- Imported version 3 of excanvas and fixed two issues with the newer + version. Hopefully, this will make Flot work with IE8 (nudge by + Fabien Menager, further analysis by Booink, issue 133). +- Changed the shadow code for lines to hopefully look a bit better + with vertical lines. +- Round tick positions to avoid possible problems with fractions + (suggestion by Fred, issue 130). +- Made the heuristic for determining how many ticks to aim for a bit + smarter. +- Fix for uneven axis margins (report and patch by Paul Kienzle) and + snapping to ticks (concurrent report and patch by lifthrasiir). +- Fixed bug with slicing in findNearbyItems (patch by zollman). +- Make heuristic for x axis label widths more dynamic (patch by + rickinhethuis). +- Make sure points on top take precedence when finding nearby points + when hovering (reported by didroe, issue 224). + +Flot 0.5 +-------- + +Backwards API change summary: Timestamps are now in UTC. Also +"selected" event -> becomes "plotselected" with new data, the +parameters for setSelection are now different (but backwards +compatibility hooks are in place), coloredAreas becomes markings with +a new interface (but backwards compatibility hooks are in place). + + +Interactivity: added a new "plothover" event and this and the +"plotclick" event now returns the closest data item (based on patch by +/david, patch by Mark Byers for bar support). See the revamped +"interacting with the data" example for some hints on what you can do. + +Highlighting: you can now highlight points and datapoints are +autohighlighted when you hover over them (if hovering is turned on). + +Support for dual axis has been added (based on patch by someone who's +annoyed and /david). For each data series you can specify which axes +it belongs to, and there are two more axes, x2axis and y2axis, to +customize. This affects the "selected" event which has been renamed to +"plotselected" and spews out { xaxis: { from: -10, to: 20 } ... }, +setSelection in which the parameters are on a new form (backwards +compatible hooks are in place so old code shouldn't break) and +markings (formerly coloredAreas). + +Timestamps in time mode are now displayed according to +UTC instead of the time zone of the visitor. This affects the way the +timestamps should be input; you'll probably have to offset the +timestamps according to your local time zone. It also affects any +custom date handling code (which basically now should use the +equivalent UTC date mehods, e.g. .setUTCMonth() instead of +.setMonth(). + +Added support for specifying the size of tick labels (axis.labelWidth, +axis.labelHeight). Useful for specifying a max label size to keep +multiple plots aligned. + +Markings, previously coloredAreas, are now specified as ranges on the +axes, like { xaxis: { from: 0, to: 10 }}. Furthermore with markings +you can now draw horizontal/vertical lines by setting from and to to +the same coordinate (idea from line support patch by by Ryan Funduk). + +The "fill" option can now be a number that specifies the opacity of +the fill. + +You can now specify a coordinate as null (like [2, null]) and Flot +will take the other coordinate into account when scaling the axes +(based on patch by joebno). + +New option for bars "align". Set it to "center" to center the bars on +the value they represent. + +setSelection now takes a second parameter which you can use to prevent +the method from firing the "plotselected" handler. + +Using the "container" option in legend now overwrites the container +element instead of just appending to it (fixes infinite legend bug, +reported by several people, fix by Brad Dewey). + +Fixed a bug in calculating spacing around the plot (reported by +timothytoe). Fixed a bug in finding max values for all-negative data +sets. Prevent the possibility of eternal looping in tick calculations. +Fixed a bug when borderWidth is set to 0 (reported by +Rob/sanchothefat). Fixed a bug with drawing bars extending below 0 +(reported by James Hewitt, patch by Ryan Funduk). Fixed a +bug with line widths of bars (reported by MikeM). Fixed a bug with +'nw' and 'sw' legend positions. Improved the handling of axis +auto-scaling with bars. Fixed a bug with multi-line x-axis tick +labels (reported by Luca Ciano). IE-fix help by Savage Zhang. + + +Flot 0.4 +-------- + +API changes: deprecated axis.noTicks in favor of just specifying the +number as axis.ticks. So "xaxis: { noTicks: 10 }" becomes +"xaxis: { ticks: 10 }" + +Time series support. Specify axis.mode: "time", put in Javascript +timestamps as data, and Flot will automatically spit out sensible +ticks. Take a look at the two new examples. The format can be +customized with axis.timeformat and axis.monthNames, or if that fails +with axis.tickFormatter. + +Support for colored background areas via grid.coloredAreas. Specify an +array of { x1, y1, x2, y2 } objects or a function that returns these +given { xmin, xmax, ymin, ymax }. + +More members on the plot object (report by Chris Davies and others). +"getData" for inspecting the assigned settings on data series (e.g. +color) and "setData", "setupGrid" and "draw" for updating the contents +without a total replot. + +The default number of ticks to aim for is now dependent on the size of +the plot in pixels. Support for customizing tick interval sizes +directly with axis.minTickSize and axis.tickSize. + +Cleaned up the automatic axis scaling algorithm and fixed how it +interacts with ticks. Also fixed a couple of tick-related corner case +bugs (one reported by mainstreetmark, another reported by timothytoe). + +The option axis.tickFormatter now takes a function with two +parameters, the second parameter is an optional object with +information about the axis. It has min, max, tickDecimals, tickSize. + +Added support for segmented lines (based on patch from Michael +MacDonald) and for ignoring null and bad values (suggestion from Nick +Konidaris and joshwaihi). + +Added support for changing the border width (joebno and safoo). +Label colors can be changed via CSS by selecting the tickLabel class. + +Fixed a bug in handling single-item bar series (reported by Emil +Filipov). Fixed erratic behaviour when interacting with the plot +with IE 7 (reported by Lau Bech Lauritzen). Prevent IE/Safari text +selection when selecting stuff on the canvas. + + + +Flot 0.3 +-------- + +This is mostly a quick-fix release because jquery.js wasn't included +in the previous zip/tarball. + +Support clicking on the plot. Turn it on with grid: { clickable: true }, +then you get a "plotclick" event on the graph placeholder with the +position in units of the plot. + +Fixed a bug in dealing with data where min = max, thanks to Michael +Messinides. + +Include jquery.js in the zip/tarball. + + +Flot 0.2 +-------- + +Added support for putting a background behind the default legend. The +default is the partly transparent background color. Added +backgroundColor and backgroundOpacity to the legend options to control +this. + +The ticks options can now be a callback function that takes one +parameter, an object with the attributes min and max. The function +should return a ticks array. + +Added labelFormatter option in legend, useful for turning the legend +labels into links. + +Fixed a couple of bugs. + +The API should now be fully documented. + +Patch from Guy Fraser to make parts of the code smaller. + +API changes: Moved labelMargin option to grid from x/yaxis. + + +Flot 0.1 +-------- + +First public release. |
