First Claim
1. A method comprising:
- receiving, by at least one processor, a selection of a vehicle operating condition detectable by the at least one processor;
receiving, by the at least one processor, vehicle data parameters associated with a particular parameter identifier;
determining, by the at least one processor, a graph view for displaying the vehicle data parameters based on an order of occurrence of the vehicle data parameters is selected,wherein the graph view comprises a graph window including a line graph and a time-based indicator with a first time segment and a second time segment,wherein the first time segment corresponds to an amount of time including a current time during which the at least one processor received at least a portion of the received vehicle data parameters, andwherein the second time segment corresponds to an amount of time during which the at least one processor received other vehicle data parameters of the received vehicle data parameters prior to receiving the at least a portion of the vehicle data parameters;
determining, by the at least one processor, the at least a portion of the vehicle data parameters to show on the line graph;
displaying, by a display, the graph window including the time-based indicator with the first time segment and the second time segment and the line graph showing the at least a portion of the vehicle data parameters, but not the other vehicle data parameters of the received vehicle data parameters prior to receiving the at least a portion of the vehicle data parameters;
determining, by the at least one processor, the other vehicle data parameters include a first instance of a particular vehicle data parameter that indicates occurrence of the vehicle operating condition and a time the at least one processor received the first instance of the particular vehicle data parameter with respect to a current time the at least one processor is receiving vehicle data parameters; and
displaying, by the display in proximity to the second time segment, a first condition indicator that indicates occurrence of the vehicle operating condition and the time the at least one processor received the first instance of the particular vehicle data parameter with respect to the current time the at least one processor is receiving vehicle data parameters.

Abstract
Methods and system pertaining to displaying vehicle data parameters (VDP) are described. A vehicle service tool (VST) with a display can receive vehicle data messages or signals from a vehicle to receive the VDP. Some of the VDP can be associated with a PID. The VST can display VDP thresholds and indicators when a received VDP has breached a VDP threshold. The VST can determine being changed from a landscape orientation to a portrait orientation or vice versa and responsively change the presentation of VDP graphs displayed by the display. The display can receive various inputs such as a drag-and-drop or pinch-and-expand input to alternatively change the presentation of the VDP graphs being displayed. Changing a VDP presentation of graphs can include resizing or repositioning one or more VDP graph windows including a VDP graph.
