Question: how to calculate padding automatically?

[alexey-milovidov]

I do this:

padding: [ null, null, null, (Math.ceil(Math.log10(Math.max(...json[1]))) + Math.floor(Math.log10(Math.max(...json[1])) / 3)) * 6 ],

But it does not feel natural.

[leeoniya]

can you elaborate on the use case?

i'm assuming you're trying to get something like this: https://leeoniya.github.io/uPlot/demos/axis-autosize.html

(related to rendering long tick values in #713)

Yes, thank you for pointing to this example. Looks like exactly what I need!
