Hi Guys,  
I want to set the y max for my chart to 100%.  
But I don't want it to be shown the whole time...so I like that node-red dashboard is adjusting the axis itself like sometimes it just shows from 95-98% (depending on if the percentage value reached 100% in the last period)... but I don't want that for example 105% is ever shown, so the y max should be 100% in the max case but could also be less.

Is there a solution for this very special problem?  
Thank you in advance!!

Hi - not automatically no... You could perhaps play with ui\_control messages to set the limits via a message but then you have to monitor the values and send adjustments as you go.
