Feature suggestion: user-defined bins in JavaScript Histogram node

Hi Evert

I agree that “intuitive” bins would be an enhancement - setting the minimum and maximum bounds would help a lot there. This was already requested for the “Auto Binner” node, but since the dialog is quite the same I’ll note that down as a +1 (internal reference: AP-10021) and ask to update the “histogram node” accordingly.

Two things I can recommend for now:

  1. the “Force integer bounds” option in the Binning tab:

    This gives somewhat nicer bins already.
  2. You can use a combination of the “Numeric Binner” with a “Bar Chart”. This gives you maximum flexibility when defining the bins (but can also be a bit tedious):

Thanks for your feedback!
Best regards,
Lukas
