## Panel options
|
||||
## Supported data formats
|
||||
|
||||
Time series visualizations require time series data; that is a sequence of measurements, ordered in time, where every row in the table represents one individual measurement at a specific time. Learn more about [time series data](https://grafana.com/docs/grafana/<GRAFANA_VERSION>/fundamentals/timeseries/).
|
||||
|
||||
## Alert rules
|
||||
|
||||
You can [link alert rules](ref:link-alert) to time series visualizations to observe when alerts fire and are resolved in the form of annotations. In addition, you can create alert rules from the **Alert** tab within the panel editor.

||||
## Transform override property
|
||||
|
||||
Use the **Transform** override property to transform series values without affecting the values shown in the tooltip, context menu, or legend.
|
||||
|
||||
<!-- add more information about how to access this property -->
|
||||
|
||||
- **Negative Y transform:** Flip the results to negative values on the Y axis.
|
||||
- **Constant:** Show the first value as a constant line.

<!-- update shared filed above to add actual steps for adding this override -->
|
||||
|
||||
## Add the Fill below to override
|
||||
|
||||
The **Fill below to** option fills the area between two series. This option is only available as a series/field override.
|
||||
|
||||
1. Edit the panel and click **Overrides**.
|
||||
1. Select the fields to fill below.
|
||||
1. In **Add override property**, select **Fill below to**.
|
||||
1. Select the series for which you want the fill to stop.
|
||||
|
||||
The following example shows three series: Min, Max, and Value. The Min and Max series have **Line width** set to 0. Max has a **Fill below to** override set to Min, which fills the area between Max and Min with the Max line color.

### Axis options

Options under the axis category change how the x- and y-axes are rendered. Some options do not take effect until you click outside of the field option box you are editing. You can also or press `Enter`.
|
||||
|
||||
| Option | Description |
|
||||
| ---------------------------------- | --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- |
|
||||
| Time zone | Set the desired time zone(s) to display along the x-axis. |
|
||||
| [Placement](#placement) | Select the placement of the y-axis. |
|
||||
| Label | Set a y-axis text label. If you have more than one y-axis, then you can assign different labels using an override. |
|
||||
| Width | Set a fixed width of the axis. By default, Grafana dynamically calculates the width of an axis. By setting the width of the axis, data with different axes types can share the same display proportions. This setting makes it easier for you to compare more than one graph’s worth of data because the axes are not shifted or stretched within visual proximity to each other. |
|
||||
| Show grid lines | Set the axis grid line visibility.<br> |
|
||||
| Color | Set the color of the axis. |
|
||||
| Show border | Set the axis border visibility. |
|
||||
| Scale | Set the y-axis values scale.<br> |
|
||||
| Centered zero | Set the y-axis to be centered on zero. |
|
||||
| [Soft min](#soft-min-and-soft-max) | Set a soft min to better control the y-axis limits. zero. |
|
||||
| [Soft max](#soft-min-and-soft-max) | Set a soft max to better control the y-axis limits. zero. |
|
||||
|
||||
#### Placement
|
||||
|
||||
Select the placement of the y-axis.
|
||||
|
||||
- **Auto:** Automatically assigns the y-axis to the series. When there are two or more series with different units, Grafana assigns the left axis to the first unit and the right axis to the units that follow.
|
||||
- **Left:** Display all y-axes on the left side.
|
||||
- **Right:** Display all y-axes on the right side.
|
||||
- **Hidden:** Hide all axes. To selectively hide axes, [Add a field override](ref:add-a-field-override) that targets specific fields.
|
||||
|
||||
#### Soft min and soft max
|
||||
|
||||
Set a **Soft min** or **soft max** option for better control of y-axis limits. By default, Grafana sets the range for the y-axis automatically based on the dataset.
|
||||
|
||||
**Soft min** and **soft max** settings can prevent small variations in the data from being magnified when it's mostly flat. In contrast, hard min and max values help prevent obscuring useful detail in the data by clipping intermittent spikes past a specific point.
|
||||
|
||||
To define hard limits of the y-axis, set standard min/max options. For more information, refer to [Configure standard options](ref:configure-standard-options).

_Stacking_ allows Grafana to display measurements on top of each other within each period displayed. This feature helps to visually represent the cumulative total of the metrics of the data series at each plotted moment. Be cautious when using stacking in the visualization as it can easily create misleading graphs.

- **Auto:** Automatically assigns the y-axis to the series. When there are two or more series with different units, Grafana assigns the left axis to the first unit and the right axis to the units that follow.
|
||||
- **Left:** Display all y-axes on the left side.
|
||||
- **Right:** Display all y-axes on the right side.
|
||||
- **Hidden:** Hide all axes.
|
||||
|
||||
To selectively hide axes, [Add a field override](ref:add-a-field-override) that targets specific fields.
|
||||
|
||||
### Label
|
||||
|
||||
Set a y-axis text label. If you have more than one y-axis, then you can assign different labels using an override.
|
||||
|
||||
### Width
|
||||
|
||||
Set a fixed width of the axis. By default, Grafana dynamically calculates the width of an axis.
|
||||
|
||||
By setting the width of the axis, data with different axes types can share the same display proportions. This setting makes it easier for you to compare more than one graph’s worth of data because the axes are not shifted or stretched within visual proximity to each other.
|
||||
|
||||
### Show grid lines
|
||||
|
||||
Set the axis grid line visibility.
|
||||
|
||||
- **Auto:** Automatically show grid lines based on the density of the data.
|
||||
- **On:** Always show grid lines.
|
||||
- **Off:** Never show grid lines.
|
||||
|
||||
### Color
|
||||
|
||||
Set the color of the axis.
|
||||
|
||||
- **Text:** Set the color based on theme text color.
|
||||
- **Series:** Set the color based on the series color.
|
||||
|
||||
### Show border
|
||||
|
||||
Set the axis border visibility.
|
||||
|
||||
### Scale
|
||||
|
||||
Set the y-axis values scale.
|
||||
|
||||
- **Linear:** Divides the scale into equal parts.
|
||||
- **Logarithmic:** Use a logarithmic scale. When you select this option, a list appears for you to choose a binary (base 2) or common (base 10) logarithmic scale.
|
||||
- **Symlog:** Use a symmetrical logarithmic scale. When you select this option, a list appears for you to choose a binary (base 2) or common (base 10) logarithmic scale. The linear threshold option allows you to set the threshold at which the scale changes from linear to logarithmic.
|
||||
|
||||
### Centered zero
|
||||
|
||||
Set the y-axis to be centered on zero.
|
||||
|
||||
### Soft min and soft max
|
||||
|
||||
Set a **Soft min** or **soft max** option for better control of y-axis limits. By default, Grafana sets the range for the y-axis automatically based on the dataset.
|
||||
|
||||
**Soft min** and **soft max** settings can prevent small variations in the data from being magnified when it's mostly flat. In contrast, hard min and max values help prevent obscuring useful detail in the data by clipping intermittent spikes past a specific point.
|
||||
|
||||
To define hard limits of the y-axis, set standard min/max options. For more information, refer to [Configure standard options](ref:configure-standard-options).
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
|
||||
### Transform
|
||||
|
||||
Use this option to transform the series values without affecting the values shown in the tooltip, context menu, or legend.
|
||||
|
||||
- **Negative Y transform:** Flip the results to negative values on the Y axis.
|
||||
- **Constant:** Show the first value as a constant line.
|
||||
|
||||
{{% admonition type="note" %}}
|
||||
The transform option is only available as an override.
|
||||
{{% /admonition %}}

|
||||
|
||||
## Color options
|
||||
|
||||
By default, the graph uses the standard [Color scheme](ref:color-scheme) option to assign series colors. You can also use the legend to open the color picker by clicking the legend series color icon. Setting
|
||||
color this way automatically creates an override rule that set's a specific color for a specific series.
|
||||
|
||||
### Classic palette
|
||||
|
||||
The most common setup is to use the **Classic palette** for graphs. This scheme automatically assigns a color for each field or series based on its order. If the order of a field changes in your query, the color also changes. You can manually configure a color for a specific field using an override rule.
|
||||
|
||||
### Single color
|
||||
|
||||
Use this mode to specify a color. You can also click the colored line icon next to each series in the Legend to open the color picker. This automatically creates a new override that sets the color scheme to single color and the selected color.
|
||||
|
||||
### By value color schemes
|
||||
|
||||
If you select a by value color scheme like **From thresholds (by value)** or **Green-Yellow-Red (by value)**, the **Color series by** option appears. This option controls which value (Last, Min, Max) to use to assign the series its color.
|
||||
|
||||
### Scheme gradient mode
|
||||
|
||||
The **Gradient mode** option located under the **Graph styles** has a mode named **Scheme**. When you enable **Scheme**, the line or bar receives a gradient color defined from the selected **Color scheme**.
|
||||
|
||||
#### From thresholds
|
||||
|
||||
If the **Color scheme** is set to **From thresholds (by value)** and **Gradient mode** is set to **Scheme**, then the line or bar color changes as they cross the defined thresholds.
|
||||

||||
