Editing a Graph or Table

With a click on the  icon located on the top right side of the graph you can edit a Graph or Table.

Another method to select this functionality is by selecting the Edit Graph option from the right-click menu.

The Edit Graph window allows for multiple changes to be made as regards the graphing function and its display. The Edit Graph window contains three panels:

·      Graph

·      Sensors

·      Layout & Colors & Fonts

 

The first panel, Graph, is broken up into two sections, Title and Charts.

In the Title section, you can define the title given to the graph. You can either choose to use the name of the first sensor in the graph (which is the default setting). or enter a name of your choice that will replace the default.

In the Charts section, you can define the times you would like to use to display the graph information. The options are:

·      Live – this will display real-time data capture, based on the time span defined in the drop-down menu to the right

·      x Minute(s) Averages –this will display information based on 5 minute averages, over a time period defined in the drop-down menu to the right (the timespan depends on the custom intervals of the selected sensors).

·      Hourly Averages – this will display information based on an hourly average, over a time period defined in the drop-down menu to the right.

·      Daily Averages – this will display information based on a daily average, over a period defined in the drop-down menu to the right.

The second tab, Sensors, is broken up in various sections. The first section allows adding or removing a sensor by clicking the respective buttons, located on the right-hand side.

By clicking on the checkboxes it is possible to activate / deactivate the lines for each channel (e.g. Traffic IN, Traffic OUT, and others).

In this window, it is also possible to select the line colors for the channels by clicking on the appropriate color field. This will bring up a color selection: Simply click the color of your choice and click OK.

Optionally you can click on Automatic Colors and PRTG will automatically choose a unique color for each channel.

The button Unit options will open a new dialog allowing to select the various types of units for each of the selected graph types:

This dialog allows to select the units to be used for the volume and the speed of each entry, respectively.

The third tab allows you to change the Layout & Colors & Fonts displayed on the graph. Please see the section Change Colors & Layout for details.
