I hope this is not a duplicate, I found similar threads for the old dashboard, but not for the 2.0 one.

I am trying to change the `ymin` and `ymax` values of a chart dynamically, meaning that the user should be able to set those values later on during runtime. I understand [from the official documentation](https://dashboard.flowfuse.com/user/dynamic-properties.html) from the official documentation that it is easy to change values marked by the dashboard-2.0-devs as "dynamic" using the `msg.ui_update` property

However, the `ymin` and `ymax` values are not dynamic, so that doesn't work.

How can i accomplish this?

Hi @snottyIsWorking - thanks for your question, and welcome to the community.

We're in the process of working through the widgets as we speak to implement the `ui_update` across all widgets, you can see our progress in this parent issue [here](https://github.com/FlowFuse/node-red-dashboard/issues/833):

The specific issue to track for the UI Chart is: [Dynamic Properties: UI Chart · Issue #1179 · FlowFuse/node-red-dashboard · GitHub](https://github.com/FlowFuse/node-red-dashboard/issues/1179)

It should hopefully be live in the next week or two.

Thank you @joepavitt , are you planning to making it possible with the aforementioned `msg.ui_update` property? If so, once that is done I will post a solution to my problem here for the sake of completeness.
