Charts: Locking y-axis in stack mode

@Eric Stein-Beldring - is there a way to lock the y-axis when you have a chart in stacked mode? We have a good example that our team has been using where we’ve created a calculated column that we need to zoom in on to see the short term trends, but the moment we move the mouse over the chart the y-axis automatically re-adjusts not allowing us to use the stacked feature. If we could toggle y-axis auto adjustment, that would be very valuable!

Hi, Richard.

As I understand it, you want to first stack the time series, then lock them so they are not moving the y-axis when you are zooming and panning?

The expected behaviour is that after enabling stacking, the y-axes should not re-scale. However there are situations where it will trigger the re-stacking and try to optimize the axes for best view of the data.

I’ll investigate with the designers and look into a better pattern to lock the axes when zooming and panning, so that it is easier to follow the data at different zoom levels.
