Custom Chart Time Period Changes

Can you change the custom chart time period drop down to match what is available from Orion NPM? Yesterday, Last 7 days, etc.

I am using APM to troubleshooting a memory issue in Lotus Domino and it is a pain having to enter in the custom dates each time I check the six processes.

Also, when I click on a graph in APM, it opens it up in the same tab. When I click on a graph in Orion NPM, it opens it up as a new tab. I like the new tab option.

thanks

P.S. - APM v2 rocks!

I agree, the APM GUI is not as user friendly as the NPM.
This is one of the main benefits of Orion over most other NPM software, the ease of use and being able to drill down quickly.
APM has a ways to go yet.

In the next release (due out shortly), the number of canned time frames has been greatly increased.

Art, what are your top two or three usability issues with APM. There are lots of changes in v3 that I suspect you'll like. But I'm working on the features for the follow-on release, and I'd love your input.

I believe you are referring to this post Denny?

I believe the biggest outstanding APM GUI issue is the Y axis not displaying the days and time correctly when view more than 1 day of data.
This graph of 3 days is basically meaningless:

Further to this, when exporting the chart data, the Date/Time column data is not in an Excel readable format.
I posted this in the APM Beta forum in January, but the post seems to be gone.

Thanks for following up on this Denny. I hope to see some GUI usability improvements in the next release.

The label issue should be fixed in 3.0.
