Abstract:
1. A method for displaying a data series, comprising: generating by a computer device an axis divided into a plurality of axis regions comprising at least a first axis region and a second axis region, wherein each of the first axis region and the second axis region uses a different linear scale, and wherein the plurality of regions forms a continuous non-linear scale on the axis; displaying by the computer device a first movable slider icon provided in relation to the first axis region, wherein the first movable slider icon is provided to control a size of the first axis region; displaying by the computer device a chart in relation to the plurality of axis regions, wherein the chart displays the data series, and wherein the data series is plotted in each axis region according to the linear scale in that axis region; receiving by the computer device new data in the data series; and subsequently displaying by the computer device the new data in the first axis region having a first linear scale, thereby resulting in automatically shifting the data series along the axis such that oldest data previously displayed in the first axis region is moved to the second axis region for display along a second linear scale.
