Line Graph - Shrinking of the values being plotted

[SharanA]

Hi,

In the Raphael Line Graph, if the number of values plotted is greater than the width of the graph minus 2 times gutter size, a shrink algorithm kicks in, which CHANGES/shrinks the values the user sends in to be plotted, with the result that on the graph I am not really seeing the values that I plotted (they have been shrunk).

I understand that some sort of shrinking needs to happen to squash the graph in the provided space, but I don't understand the thinking behind changing the actual business values provided to be plotted. The values do not even retain their scale in relation to the Y axis. For eg if I plot the following values on the x and y axis respectively, the value (3.0, 10000.0) is reflected as (3.4, 14000):
var lines = paper.g.linechart(50, 50, 29, 300,
[[0.0, 1.0, 2.0, 3.0, 4.0, 5.0, 6.0, 7.0, 8.0, 9.0]],
[[0.0, 79997.0, 80023.0, 10000.0, 20000.0, 30000.0, 40000.0, 80222.0, 80253.0, 80283.0]])

Is there another way around this? Could someone please help with this problem if you have come across it and found a solution?

The example above is just a simplified example. I came across the problem when trying to plot a per minute graph for a whole day - so 1440 values - it only "works" if the width is 1460 or more..otherwise all the values to be plotted are recalculated which results in an "incorrect" graph for my purposes

Thanks
