Hey,

can anyone tell me what the following stat in my profile means?

"Total hours: 64,307"

That number links to a bar chart which doesn't have captions, legend or other explanation. Anyone knows what it shows?

Screenshots:

Linked graph: https://i.ibb.co/n7S2fQB/Screenshot-from-2022-01-12-23-47-30.png

EDIT: screenshots are not shown for some reason, changed them to urls.

Cheers, mxplm

It should be all of the hours added up from the Linked Graph. All of the hours counted by WUProp from BOINC apps.

Ah, now I see it. The bar colors of the graph correspond to the star colors on the "Reported data" table on the profile page (white, bronze, silver, gold, etc.). Thanks!

It would be very helpful to add some description to the graph (application names in the bars, and above all labeling the axis).

Hovering over one of the bars in the graph gives the application name in a tooltip.

Some people have 600+ apps so having text for all of them on display is not feasible.

Hm, for me the tooltip doesn't work (Ubuntu 21.04 with Firefox 95.0.1, AdBlock disabled).

I get that displaying the app name could get crowded, but some labels like graph title, axis description and unit should still be included imo.
