Chart::Gnuplot Time Axis output

hmadhi has asked for the wisdom of the Perl Monks concerning the following question:

I have the following defined, however the resulted plot shows date (01/01) on x axis (time axis). I want the time axis to only show time eg 14:00

my $chart = Chart::Gnuplot->new(
        output => "/home/hmadhi/workspace/CommsNet/www/Plots/$kpi.png"
+,
        title  => {text=>"$kpi Success Rate on $node/$ran ($interface)
+ $date",
                  },
        xlabel => {text=>"Time",},
        ylabel => "$kpi Succ_Rate",
        timeaxis => "x",
    );
    
    # Create dataset object and specify the properties of the dataset
    my $dataSet1 = Chart::Gnuplot::DataSet->new(
        xdata => \@time,
        ydata => \@succ_rate,     
        timefmt => '%H:%M',
    );

See Example 7 in the docs. All you need to do is define `xtics` with the `labelfmt` of your choice. Something like the following (untetsted, I don't have `Chart::Gnuplot` on this machine): `my $chart = Chart::Gnuplot->new( output => "/home/hmadhi/workspace/CommsNet/www/Plots/$kpi.png" +, title => {text=>"$kpi Success Rate on $node/$ran ($interface) + $date", }, xlabel => {text=>"Time",}, ylabel => "$kpi Succ_Rate", timeaxis => "x", xtics => { labelfmt => '%H:%M', }, );` [download]	[reply] [d/l] [select]
