+Flot 0.x
+--------
+
+Changes:
+
+- Added support for disabling interactivity for specific data series
+ (request from Ronald Schouten and Steve Upton).
+
+- Flot now calls $() on the placeholder and optional legend container
+ passed in so you can specify DOM elements or CSS expressions to make
+ it easier to use Flot with libraries like Prototype or Mootools.
+
+- A new "plotselecting" event is now emitted while the user is making
+ selection.
+
+- Added a new crosshairs feature for tracing the mouse position on the
+ axes, enable with crosshair { mode: "x"} (see the new tracking
+ example for a use).
+
+- The "plothover" event is now emitted immediately instead of at most
+ 10 times per second, you'll have to put in a setTimeout yourself if
+ you're doing something really expensive on this event.
+
+- The built-in date formatter can now be accessed as
+ $.plot.formatDate(...) (suggestion by Matt Manela) and even
+ replaced.
+
+- Added "borderColor" option to the grid (patch from Amaury Chamayou
+ and patch from Mike R. Williamson).
+
+- Added support for gradient backgrounds for the grid, take a look at
+ the "setting options" example (based on patch from Amaury Chamayou,
+ issue 90).
+
+- Gradient bars (suggestion by stefpet).
+
+- Added a "plotunselected" event which is triggered when the selection
+ is removed, see "selection" example (suggestion by Meda Ugo);
+
+- The option legend.margin can now specify horizontal and vertical
+ margins independently (suggestion by someone who's annoyed).
+
+- Data passed into Flot is now copied to a new canonical format to
+ enable further processing before it hits the drawing routines. As a
+ side-effect, this should make Flot more robust in the face of bad
+ data (and fixes issue 112).
+
+- Step-wise charting: line charts have a new option "steps" that when
+ set to true connects the points with horizontal/vertical steps
+ instead of diagonal lines.
+
+- Thresholding: you can set a threshold and a color, and the data
+ points below that threshold will then get the color. Useful for
+ marking data below 0, for instance.
+
+- The legend labelFormatter now passes the series in addition to just
+ the label (suggestion by Vincent Lemeltier).
+
+- Horizontal bars (based on patch by Jason LeBrun).
+
+- Support for partial bars by specifying a third coordinate, i.e. they
+ don't have to start from the axis. This can be used to make stacked
+ bars.
+
+Bug fixes:
+
+- Fixed two corner-case bugs when drawing filled curves (report and
+ analysis by Joshua Varner).
+- Fix auto-adjustment code when setting min to 0 for an axis where the
+ dataset is completely flat on that axis (report by chovy).
+- Fixed a bug with passing in data from getData to setData when the
+ secondary axes are used (issue 65, reported by nperelman).
+- Fixed so that it is possible to turn lines off when no other chart
+ type is shown (based on problem reported by Glenn Vanderburg), and
+ fixed so that setting lineWidth to 0 also hides the shadow (based on
+ problem reported by Sergio Nunes).
+- Updated mousemove position expression to the latest from jQuery (bug
+ reported by meyuchas).
+- Use borders instead of background in legend (fix printing issue 25
+ and 45).
+- Explicitly convert axis min/max to numbers.
+- Fixed a bug with drawing marking lines with different colors
+ (reported by Khurram).
+- Fixed a bug with returning y2 values in the selection event (fix
+ by exists, issue 75).
+- Only set position relative on placeholder if it hasn't already a
+ position different from static (reported by kyberneticist, issue 95).
+- Don't round markings to prevent sub-pixel problems (reported by Dan
+ Lipsitt).
+- Make the grid border act similarly to a regular CSS border, i.e.
+ prevent it from overlapping the plot itself. This also fixes a
+ problem with anti-aliasing when the width is 1 pixel (reported by
+ Anthony Ettinger).
+- Imported SVN version of excanvas and fixed an issue with the newer
+ version. Hopefully, this will make Flot work with IE8 (nudge by
+ Fabien Menager).
+- Changed the shadow code for lines to hopefully look a bit better
+ with vertical lines.
+- Round tick positions to avoid possible problems with fractions
+ (suggestion by Fred, issue 130).
