Hi Eric,

I'm redoing the look of QPnf charts and drawing trendlines is one of the requirements. I just haven't had much time lately to actually code anything besides real job stuff so QPnf is slightly on the backburner. But I haven't forgotten! I get an email a day asking me about printing and saving the charts and I figured I'd just redo the drawing so printing, drawing etc can happen. By the way, I am going to support TC2000 directly in the next version so you don't have to export text etc etc anymore.

Part of the reason why I put all those trendlines in there was because it was easier to just draw trendlines from every local maxima and local minima and let you figure out which ones suit you best! It was a quick and dirty hack that seemed to work. I'll try to put in an option to only display the BRL/BSL in the next version (I like having all those lines now, I got used to them).

As far as dates, if you hover the mouse on a column, the date the column was started will pop up. That should give you the information you need when you're in a chart, but you cannot capture that to a file. I'll look into putting the date at the bottom of the page regardless of how far you've scrolled, but I don't think I'll do it before I get the rest of QPnf updated to support the new charts. But I'll keep it in mind for the next versions.
