## When should this display be used?&#x20;

The “Analog Trend” view should be used when you want to track the progression of one or more values over a certain period of time—for example, the temperature progression in a room, or the number of people in a room.

## What is the difference from the “Two Analog Trends” widget?

In the "Analog Trend" widget, the individual trends are displayed overlapping.

In the "Two Analog Trends" widget, the individual trends are displayed one below the other.
