Hello,

my question is whether it is possible to have local settings for the PowerChart component? As is the case with other components e.g. "DateTimeInput"

 ![image](https://us1.discourse-cdn.com/inductiveautomation/original/3X/6/8/68737afc1753ed7032868268f808af1883da0122.png)

I would like to be able to set the same for the PowerChart component under Set Date Range.

Is this possible? How can this be done, the locale property is not recognised in this component.

Best regards,  
Michał Góralczyk

After some quick designer testing, it seems this is not possible at this time, but others may have a work around.

You may put in a Feature Request with IA to have this be.

I should mention a solution may be to implement the range selector using two datetime pickers and have those locals set and then in the config.visibility section turn off the range selection inside the power charts visibility.

Note, you will need to swap the mode to historical and vice versa based on when you want to look at realtime data or historical
