[REQUEST] CPU graph with classic bar-chart (instead of symmetric bar-chart)

Open novoid opened this issue 5 years ago • 1 comments

Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.

I personally am not able to see at a glance how much CPU usage is going on with this symmetric chart.

Describe the solution you'd like

I think I'd prefer a classic bar-chart where all bars start at the same horizontal line, reaching a max at a common top line which is clearly identifiable. At least this is the kind of visualization which would not lead to open questions.

Describe alternatives you've considered

Alternatively, a better visual clue or online help how to interpret the symmetric graph that is currently shown would be nice. At my side, there are four vertical stacked dots per [I don't know] followed by a vertical space. Are those four stacked dots per one percent average CPU usage?

Well, you do have the percentages to the right of the graph, I personally don't see it being a problem approximating the percentages from the graph, especially when having colors as a guide too.

But I can look into adding a single graph covering the the same space as an option.
