Re: [nebula-dev] Contributions to XYGraph

Hi Christian,

I'm not a Nebula committer, but we're consuming this widget and it's quite important to us so I'm taking this liberty. Please correct me if I'm wrong.

The XYGraph does not appear to have any project wide formatting settings, so using the formatter on this code would most likely result in undesirable changes. I suggest reverting those caused by the formatter.

I'm looking forward to this :-)

Yes, good idea.
