Unfortunately, it's only plotting the first 1,000. I understand that this is a limit in jschart, but the documentation say it can be overridden. I've added this to my HiddenChartFormatter:</P> <PRE><CODE>&lt;param name="charting.chart.resultTruncationLimit"&gt;5000&lt;param&gt; </CODE></PRE> <P>However, the chart behaves exactly the same -- still gives a truncation error that the chart too many datapoints. Any ideas what I might be doing wrong?</P> Fri, 14 Nov 2014 21:48:18 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-Search/Why-is-the-limit-I-set-for-jschart-resultTruncationLimit-not/m-p/118271#M31564 vrmerlin 2014-11-14T21:48:18Z https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-Search/Why-is-the-limit-I-set-for-jschart-resultTruncationLimit-not/m-p/118272#M31565 <P>IIRC the default value can be overridden, but not beyond a certain limit. That limit may very well be around 1000.</P> <P>What are you trying to plot, and how are you displaying it to actually see 5000 distinct values?</P> Sat, 15 Nov 2014 10:08:59 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-Search/Why-is-the-limit-I-set-for-jschart-resultTruncationLimit-not/m-p/118272#M31565 martin_mueller 2014-11-15T10:08:59Z https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-Search/Why-is-the-limit-I-set-for-jschart-resultTruncationLimit-not/m-p/118273#M31566 <P>I'm plotting several series of CPU percentages on a timechart, in 5min intervals. A selector at the top allows the user to select between 1 day, 3 days, or 7 days. The 7 days select is only partially displaying because there are too many datapoints. I resolve it, i created an additional selection box to change the interval, but it's causing some end user confusion.</P> Mon, 17 Nov 2014 16:07:39 GMT https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-Search/Why-is-the-limit-I-set-for-jschart-resultTruncationLimit-not/m-p/118273#M31566 vrmerlin 2014-11-17T16:07:39Z https://community.splunk.com/t5/Splunk-Search/Why-is-the-limit-I-set-for-jschart-resultTruncationLimit-not/m-p/118274#M31567 <P>I see.
