I'm hoping to get some feedback from the community who has an interest in this module and also others who have experience building features like this for graphing modules.
Everything here is also recorded in the flot_charts' issue queue: http://drupal.org/project/issues/flot_charts
project page: http://drupal.org/project/flot_charts
code: https://github.com/rj-steinert/flot_charts-for-views
These features have been determined (mostly) from the requirements for the open source Sensor Hub project (http://sensorhub.org/wiki).
Features
Group by field
http://drupal.org/node/1036818
Inspired by the views_charts module. Sort and group data on a selected Field attached to the View to generate multiple data objects for a single chart. Might need to watch out for the pager.
Map x and y axis to fields attached to the view
http://drupal.org/node/1036820
Drop the Flot Data field that has been required and just use Views UI in the Style plugin to pick which fields that have been attached to the View should be used for each axis.
x/y Min and Max exposed filter
http://drupal.org/node/1036822
Needs research. May sometimes be possible with Views filters that already exist.
Display meta about each node on mouse over
http://drupal.org/node/1036832
Display meta about each node on mouse over. The information could be from the attached fields. The style plugin could have check boxes next to each field to choose which pieces of information are included on in the tooltip.
An example module to demonstrate set up in Views
http://drupal.org/node/1036838
Export a module with Views definitions using the Features module.
