Feature request: Scale input

[wormiedk]

It would be great if there was a possibility of scaling the input so I could have more graphs sharing the same axis.

As an example I have a radiator with a status variable between 0 and 3 that I would like to display alongside another value which is in the range of 0-100. It would be great if I could multiply the status variable by e.g 20 in order to display them together on the same axis.

I am already using the other axis for something different.

Well, that doesn't look very logic for a graph. An axis represents a type of value with a defined scale, it can't represent 2 different scales at the same time on the same axis. Sounds like comparing apples and oranges.

You could however create a template sensor in home assistant which would multiply the value by 20 and display that sensor in the graph instead.

Although it is meaningless to show different parameters on the same Y-axis, anyway it is possible by using a value_factor option for each entity - then both graphs will by within same "scale".

Note that:

1. The value_factor is introduced in v0.9.4.
2. The value_factor should be per-entity - value_factor should be per-entity #607
3. The value_factor should be [-xxx.xxx, +xxx.xxx] - see feat: add a multiplier to replace the potentially confusing value_factor #591

Closed as duplicate in favour of #591
