Change graph type

Hi Lasse,

good idea. I'm just wondering what to do about the graph colors, as you don't want to hide the upload information behind the download information, and vice versa...

You could plot them as line graphs instead of bar graphs.

Lines would be the easiest way of doing it yes.

If you would like it to look like the other graphs you could either color the area that both graphs covered one color, and the other two two different colors (something in the line of http://codebox.org.uk/pages/bitmeter2) or you could decide which graph were lower than the other at each point, and then draw the bigger behind the lower.

I don't think changing the fill color like in the graphs you linked to is a good way of plotting this - IMO it's not very well-readable, especially in a small plot. Your second option would be prefereable, although plots potentially changing order all the time would lead to a pin-striped network graph, also not very beautiful.

Is it possible to draw the filling with partial transparency? That way, you could draw line graphs with half-transparent filling, which would nicely add together for a denser color in the overlapping area. Like so:

I meant, like in the attachment. Even better would be if the line would be plotted, too (not only the area), with full opacity.
