Dynamic Scale in WebI for Combined Graphs

Sunday, October 9th, 2011

The scale in graphs for WebI is something that can be left as automatic or it can be hardcoded by introducing figures.

This is the exact and main purpose of this first article; to give real insight into the new fancy application web version in terms of layout.
