Thanks for the info, I will peek into the qchart.js, it looks promising.

I think that would be a nice improvement to the application and it has crossed my mind before.
Drawing, say, 10-20 strongest satellites by rectangles and a few labels is actually a lot easier task than drawing the current radar, so that's a plus. Jolla Phone handles the radar fine, and the bar chart shouldn't update tens of times a second anyway - perhaps only once per second or two.
I have a fork of qchart.js, and it's used in CarBudget and BudgetBook at least. It's not at all difficult task to order the satellites by signal strength and in-use status, and draw them, so I kinda vote for Canvas in this case.
I guess you could look at qchart.js and see how it looks? I'm somewhat handy with Canvas already, but not at all with qchart.js so I really can't tell if it's suitable or not.

The axis label fonts colors and sizes needs some tweaking, but it generally rolls.
I needed to tweak the qchart.js code to get the bars colored differently.

Thanks for your work! I tweaked the appearance a bit and moved it to the left side of the main page, so that users find it more easily. It's no use to create something new and keep it two pages away ;)
The chart itself works perfectly, but I'm really flummoxed about QChart... There are all kinds of alignment issues, there is no easy way to highlight certain bars nor the labels can't have customized style (for higlighting the satellites that are used for position calculation) and it's just so complex (although I like the centralized configuration style). It is completely adequate for this purpose though, so I released the feature today. Let's hope we get some valuable feedback from the users!
(This gave me a spark to reimplement the QChart using only QML assets, as I did with SatelliteInfoPage.qml, as it better allows for threaded and accelerated rendering, much more so than Canvas and context2d - but that's another can of worms altogether!)
As this is now released, could you test the release and close this issue if you're satisfied with it?

Works great, thanks for the added features!
