We've upgraded our old XMR charts and replaced them with new NHS-compliant SPC charts, which should be more familiar to users.
These are currently "in beta test" and will be released to live within a few days.

The changes are:
- Remove Moving Average (MR) Chart
- Use NHS Point Colouring Rules
- If 6 dots or more in a row of continuous improvement, colour blue
- If 6 dots or more in a row of continuous worsening, colour orange
- If 6 dots or more in a row are better than the base line mean, colour blue
- If 6 dots or more in a row are worse than the base line mean, colour orange
- If none of above criteria is met colour dots grey
3. Use NHS Line Colours
- Performance line = solid grey
- Process Limit line = Dashed Grey
- Target Line = Dashed Red
- Minor Horizontal Gridlines = Fine width solid grey
4. Change Calculation Rules
- Always show maximum number of points available up to 60 points (Remove "duration" option).
- Calculate Mean Line (Baseline) on the first half of points on display.
- Calculate Average Moving Range on the first half of points on display.
- Set process limit lines at 2.66 * average moving range
5. Legend Items
- Mean
- Process limits
- Target as set
6. Variation and Assurance Icons
If latest performance point is:
- coloured orange and high is good = show orange L
- coloured blue and high is good = show blue H icon
- coloured orange and low is good = show orange H icon
- coloured blue and low is good = show blue L icon
- uncoloured (grey) = show CC icon
If last 6 performance points are:
- better than target = show P icon
- worse than target = show F icon
- a mix of better and worse = show ? icon
