How to graph the most recent value of an output?

[carlsonbJTEKT]

I want to graph values that show a machine's current status over time. However, the machine only sends a status update every time it changes. How can I get the graph to show that the value stays constant until it is updated?

Like this:

... | stats latest(fieldname) by host

Or

... | timechart latest(fieldname) by host
