Hi John, Thanks for the suggestions, I’ll implement these changes (and others) to the plots when I get a chance. Yes, this is very easy to update (it may happen automatically when Andrey updates the numbers, not sure). Anyway I’ll keep improving

Hi John,

Thanks Tim.  I sent the bottom one to Tuts to include in the Annual
Report.  I presume you have set this up in a way where you could easily
update it in a couple weeks just before the report is due?

A few minor formatting suggestions for the future (no urgency):

- a lot of space is needed around the plot, to fit the title, legend,
etc.  It would be nicer to have a smaller "bounding box" around the
actual plot.  Here are a few ideas:
        - a good place to move the legend is in the upper left of the plot
itself, like I did on the FEB plot I sent
        - move the title and axes closer to the plot

- you could reduce the space needed for the legend; for eg., "Total
Number of Assemblies received at SMU" --> "Assemblies Delivered to SMU"
and similar for the others.

- reorder the legend from top to bottom to match the order of the lines
in the plot.  ie. start with "1700 Assemblies Needed" (or whatever the
exact number is), then "Delivered to SMU (planned)", and "Delivered to
SMU (actual)", then testing, etc.

- maybe you should a "Failed" line?  Also, not sure there is a sensible
"Expected Passed" line, since a priori we don't know the yield

- add finer y-axis grid lines, every 100, since it is hard to visually
"interpolate" between 500.  You could also then likely change the upper
y-range to 1800.
