75c589da
DV
35 <p>By using the connectSeparated attribute, it's possible to display a chart of several time series with completely independent x-values.</p>
36
37 <p>The trick is to specify values for the series at the union of the x-values of all series. For one series' x values, specify <code>null</code> for each of the other series.</p>

40 <p>For example, say you had two series:</p>
41 <table><tr>
42 <td valign=top>
43 <table>
44 <table class=thinborder>
45 <tr><th>x</th><th>A</th></tr>
46 <tr><td>2</td><td>2</td></tr>

DV
47 <tr><td>4</td><td>6</td></tr>
48 <tr><td>6</td><td>4</td></tr>
75c589da
DV
49 </table>
50 </td>
51 <td valign=top style="padding-left:25px;">
52 <table class=thinborder>
53 <tr><th>x</th><th>B</th></tr>
54 <tr><td>1</td><td>3</td></tr>

55 <tr><td>3</td><td>7</td></tr>
56 <tr><td>5</td><td>5</td></tr>
75c589da

57 </table>
58 </td>
59 </tr></table>

61 <p>Then you would specify the following CSV or native data:</p>

104 <h3>Encoding a gap</h3>
105 <p>There's one extra wrinkle. What if one of the series has a missing

131 <p>The gap would normally be encoded as a null, or missing value. But when you use <code>connectSeparatedPoints</code>, that has a special meaning. Instead, you have to use <code>NaN</code>. This is a bit of a hack, but it gets the job done.</p>
