Make Graph "Loose Fit" option actually work

Status: New

Can we get a "Loose Fit" plot axis option that actually works?

In the plot above, it's really hard to tell without squinting what the value was over time. Did it transition from 5 to 6, or 6 to 5? If you toggle the "loose fit" option in this plot, it looks exactly the same.

 

Can we add a property to specify something like "LooseFit.Padding"? Users could enter a percentage of full scale value, so then once the native autoscale algorithm is performed, it bumps out the y-axis min/max values by x% of the full range.

In addition, we don't want the first and last tick marks at the axis edge, but at resonably indented values.

 

That's where this idea will come in handy! Both ideas should be implemented simultaneously. 😄
