The trend element, also named oscilloscope element, is used to display variable values within a certain time period. It stores the data in a file on the client and displays them as a graph. As soon as a value changes, a new entry will be made in the file, showing date/time and the new value.

The trend element is drawn transparently. So you can assign any desired background (bitmap, color).
