One special feature for all charts in CumulusUtils is the possibility for the background image. This is described in [[Website_Generator#Chart_Background_Images|the chapter on the website]] | |||

A very important thing with the graphs is the '''Colour''' selection. For some charts, users can specify colours in multiples ways for other charts no specification is possible. In general for line charts, the user can choose the colour per line, for specific charts like the heatmap no choice is possible. See each chart description for the specification. If any colour specification in reality is not according to this specification, please report as a bug (either in documentation of in software) | A very important thing with the graphs is the '''Colour''' selection.

The heatmap does get a bit compressed when the series get longer. If more than ten years are available the years are split up in pages and buttons appear to switch between pages or display all data. This has to do with taste. There is also the button ''All'' which gives the user the possibility to undo the split. | The heatmap does get a bit compressed when the series get longer.

==== GrowingDegreeDaysReferenceTemp ==== | |||
This parameter contains the reference temperature for the chart Growing Degree Days and represents the heuristic temperature at which plants come out of their winter rest. In principle the chart ''Temperature Sum'' has a non modifiable ''reference temperature'' of 0. | |||
==== WinterToSpringTemperatureLimit ==== | |||
With a default of zero degrees Celsius this parameter defines the thermal boundary between winter and spring. | |||
If 10 successive days have an average temperature above 0 °C then Spring is declared. The same boundary works the other way around to declare transition from autumn to winter. | |||
==== SpringToSummerTemperatureLimit ==== | |||
With a default of 10 °C this parameter defines the thermal boundary between spring and summer. | |||
If 10 successive days have an average temperature above 10 °C then Summer is declared. The same boundary works the other way around to declare transition from summer to autumn. | |||
