TalkPHP - View Single Post - Generating a barchart with "different starts"

Hello!

I'm trying out image_graph and I'm trying to make a bar chart with it.
The thing is that the bars should first of all be horizontal, and secondly they have different starts and ends.

I've tried everything, but I cannot seem to solve it.

The general idea is to print out meetings as bars.

Say I have a meeting between 8am and 10am, then the graph should show a horizontal bar going from 8.00 to 10.00. My meeting at 11.00 to 12.00 should be drawn on a line under the 10.00 meeting.

Like this: (*tries to use ASCII*)

Morning_meeting_____----
Second__meeting_________----
Third___meeting_____________---

Could anyone help me figure this out? It's not neccesary that the graph has to use Image_Graph.

Thanks!
