sorry, I am a complete dunce.

In my defenece I did search

BatteryGraph version 0.3.1 can now be found in Extras-Testing

Changelog

• Added option to export entire graph to png image file

The entire graph will be saved as a (very wide) png image in /home/user/MyDocs/.images/BatteryGraph

Too bad you can't attach images this wide on this forum
Look here for an example image.

Using 0.3.1.

I must say, you have done a great job.

I have an issue with switching the graph to dispaly in full or partial screen mode.
The problem is that when sliding the graph left & right it will sometimes switch between these modes (full / partial) all by itself.
And every time it switches modes I have to scroll from the beginning to find the interesting spot.

So this is 2 problems:
1) accidental switching.
2) after switching - graph is reset to beggining.

One tiny request:
Could you *not* draw the Charger status on the graph? It appears to be a binary value anyway, so it is sufficient to show it by marking time axis in green.

hey
cool looking app, do I need to keep it open/running to monitor the battery, or is it performed by a daemon in the background?

There is a daemon in the background.

I was annoyed by this too . So this behavior will be changed in next release. It will require a double click to toggle fullscreen mode and there will also be a menu option to toggle fullscreen (for those who can't doubleclick )

This will be configurable in next release.

Thank you for your suggestions.

Was about to comment on this, good to know you are aware

A few possible suggestions:

- Add a legend for colors in the exported image, as it is now i wouldnt know if a user set a color for something i cannot see (not too important)

- Add a background color selection (could be easier to adjust colors for the colorblind like me lol), and also allow for adjusting transparency values (if possible, it would be nice to have a transparent wifi/grps such that colors dont interfere with each other)

- Allow for splitting the exported graph into chunks (as a programmer i realize that to make this really versatile, you would have to define a start time and a period for each of the chunks but it would primarily be helpful to compare day-by-day battery consumption so a fixed daily period would do wonders for a start

Thanks very much for the great program

I have three suggestions:

- Logging network traffic on either interface (GPRS/3G and WLAN, i.e. two graphs: one for 3G/GPRS and one for WLAN, both combining RX and TX bytes)
- Logging call duration
- Logging cell signal strength

I posted them with somewhat more info here:
https://garage.maemo.org/tracker/ind...1351&atid=5007

As to how to represent them in the graph... cell signal strength is obvious, a line. Call duration and network traffic is somewhat similar, could be a line or bar to show bytes/minutes per interval/period (fixed/user configured/dynamic according to zoom level), or (esp. for call duration) it could be a line showing accumulated call time since the previous (full) charge, as this is a value commonly advertised.
