The functionality here: > [@\[FEATURE\] Increase usability of the Perspective Power Chart component](https://forum.inductiveautomation.com/t/feature-increase-usability-of-the-perspective-power-chart-component/51474/65): > > Demos of (sure, this product looks a little dated, but it's super user friendly!): auto-scroll enable with time (Power Chart's current "realtime" mode) chart drag to scroll time (Power Chart's current "historic" mode) "Move to now" button (Power Chart: change from "historic" mode to "realtime" mode) span selection start/end datetime changing, with span lock enabled. Changing start or end updates the other according to the span. With spanlock disabled, span changes according to new datetimes. y… The buttons themselves like setting span, start/end dates, go to now, track with time, etc. should all be relatively easy to do in scripting, but the user interaction with the chart itself will need JS to implement which I don't have experience with (yet?). If they can be done though, we could eliminate using the Power Chart altogether which would be exciting! The other things not specifically mentioned in that post, but that are visible in the screencapture, are: - the ability to pan the time window back and forth using the mouse to click/drag to swipe through time. And it'd be nice to be able to do this while still in the "x trace" mode. edit: it looks like your chart does this already, however I'm not sure if the chart data is updating in realtime or if it's just static, but historical trends need the ability to drag back and forth throughout time, outside of the time window that's currently shown. - display the full datetimes for the major gridlines - zoom window to allow zooming in on a dragged window --- _[View the full topic](https://forum.inductiveautomation.com/t/bug-perspective-power-chart-bug-embr-chart-as-a-replacement/102084)._
