Hello,

Is it possible to show the time with seconds and even millliseconds in the time series chart in perspective?

Thanks.

Yes. This is a Power Chart in Persepctive.

To adjust the timeFormat for the xtrace box we have to first set the Power Chart property: interaction \> mode to “xTrace”.

After this is done we now see there is a new property for xTrace. Within the xTrace property is the “infoBox” property. You can adjust the timeFormat property found there: interaction \> xTrace \> infoBox \> timeFormat.

See this screenshot for what it would like in the Designer:
