Noncontiguous date ranges - user painted XAxis values - possible?

Nick -

Is the anomaly tracking ID  you provided something I can use to track the status of this behavior? Is the tracking system something I can access or is it internal?

Thanks.

Joe,

We are currently working on getting a Known Issues document up on the website that will list all known issues and workarounds, listed by the ID I have provided. However, at the moment, the ID is only used internally, and for the list of bug fixes for each release.  Applications Engineering also has access to this internal information, and can provide more detailed status information upon inquiry.

Thanks!

Just checking in to see when we might expect a fix. I've continued enhancing this sample and came across something else that seems to be related.

Hey jsytniak,

I checked the status of this recorded bug and unfortunately all I know right now is that it has been scheduled to be fixed in a later release of Measurement Studio. Please feel free to check on this in the future and someone will keep you updated.

Not sure if I should have posted this as a new thread, but what I am about to ask does seem related...

... I need to format the Xaxis and Cursor LabelXFormats with a format for elapsed time. Where the first data point would be 000:00:00.000 (hhh:mm:ss.fff) and the data point at an hour in would be 001:00:00.00. It am not sure that I will be able to do this by overriding FormatDouble as this is really a string formatting issue and the format that I need really is not a valid format for date formatting. 

Any ideas?

Thanks.

Joe

It turned out to be pretty simple.

    class TimeSpanFormatString : FormatString

    {

        public double Start;

        public TimeSpanFormatString(DateTime start) : base()

        {

            this.Start = ((double)DataConverter.Convert(start, typeof(double)));

        }

        public override string FormatDouble(double value)

        {

            DateTime dtmStart = ((DateTime)DataConverter.Convert(this.Start, typeof(DateTime)));

            DateTime dtmValue = ((DateTime)DataConverter.Convert(value, typeof(DateTime)));

            TimeSpan work = dtmValue - dtmStart;

            return string.Format("D{0} {1:000}:{2:00}:{3:00}", work.Days, work.Hours, work.Minutes, work.Seconds);

        }

    }
