Right. As the source can only tell something about the window available
on it's end in the ACK packages, this selection has being used to graph
the values. It's up to the user choosing the right direction as it has
been done with the other graphs (let along the oposite direction of the
values graphed in the other graphs).

You mean to add a option to the graph control window, fired up in the
background to toggle between the direction?
