Graphs

Graph Templates

The app has five template graphs:

  1. Monkeys Wedding - shows precipitation (blue), clouds (grey), sun (yellow) and wind speed (green line).
  2. Cricket Chirps - this is the DeltaTemp graph which shows the temperature (blue line) along with cold (blue shading) and warm (red shading) for changes compared to the same time the previous day.
  3. Sun Dogs - shows pressure (white or black line, depending on app theme selected).
  4. Starry Night - shows humidity (blue line).
  5. Sailors Delight - shows wind speed (dark green line) and wind gusts (light green line). Note: if using dark app theme, speed and gust colours are reversed.

The coloured icons on the top right of each graph indicate data type.  See the Map Data help page for more detail of what each data icon means.

Edit Graph

The Graph Editor, available in the Pro Version by purchasing any subscription, allows you to customize what is shown on each graph.

It is important to note that graphs are global elements, so if you edit a graph that is used in, for example, a widget and in the app, it will change in both places.

There are three way to open the graph editor:

  • When viewing a place in the app, long-press on a graph, which will show the graph menu, and select Edit Graph.
  • When editing a widget (by clicking the menu icon top right of the widget) , you can long-press on a graph, which will show the graph menu, and select Edit Graph.
  • In the top left menu (Nav Drawer), select Editor, Graphs, then the graph you want to edit.

Elements that can be edited include:

  • Background colour
  • Scale bands
  • Data types
  • Gridlines
  • Labels (click the 'cog' icon to select data type)
  • Icons
